“Blue Ink” is the yearly anthology of poetry, prose, and art published by the Northern Writers, a collective of writers and artists at Forest Hills Northern High School in Grand Rapids, MI. In this Rebirth issue of “Blue Ink”, the 10th edition, the Northern Writers explore who they are and where they're going. For high-school artists, this is a lot to take on. In her poem, "Untitled," Tanvi Kulkarni takes on the feeling of oneness surrounded by so much uncertainty. Maria Hillary tells us in "The Boy at the Bus Stop" that it's not exactly an easy (or sure) path to go it alone. Hillary wonders, "I chose instead to stand outside on that chilly day. But what if I had said okay?" and we, the readers, identify with the unsureness of the decisions we make in this life as we evolve.
