After the new fallen snow
no footprints mar the perfection
of a field of white or tree laden branches
that bend bearing the weight.
Roof eaves hand glistening icicles
dripping dewdrops as temperatures rise.
The air mists as you breathe in
drawing the cold, crips air of morning
filling your lungs with winter
shining under a cloudless blue sky.

A More Human Vocal
When we launched Vocal nearly a decade ago, the world was a very different place. LLMs did not exist, and stories were created one at a time by people sitting down to write, revise, and share something personal. Many of our assumptions about publishing, trust, and participation were built for a world where effort and output were inseparable.
