“Give me silence, water, hope / Give me struggle, iron, volcanoes.” -Neruda
My name is Michael Garrity and I am from Colorado; currently living in Denver. I don’t have any good reasons as to why I write nor why I post essays through this website. I like writing. I enjoy crafting my voice and trying to connect with other humans through written observation and story-telling. In our world, words serve as observation and expression of the individual experience with the aspiration of connection and understanding between people. I wish to pursue that, that connection and understanding between individuals, varied and lovely as we all are. In life outside of writing, I seek heavy and hard effort, good coffee, great friends, and mediocre pastries.
