If you steal my poetry...I will find you in between the metaphoric lines. I will smudge you with inky darkness and do unwritable things never whispered of. In full disclosure, I am absurdly mad and take no responsibility for my actions if crossed. But, otherwise, I’m a deep visualizing poet creating particular facets, not only line by line but even the shades and innuendo between them; to the point that, I can get so comfortably caught up in my imaginations first imperfect draft that I sometimes just move in to stay there… rhetorical, spelling, grammar, mechanics be damn, nothing in life is that perfect. I don’t need tailor-made, I need someone/something to fit well enough that it becomes fashionable for me to wear well. I don’t need to pretend to know everything and I resist pontificating those things I’m well versed in.
I'm just a simple romantic at heart waiting on a perfect storm to completely sweep over me like gentle fresh dawn. In the meantime, I write meaningful (to me) poetry from my heart and share it here. I tend to approach everyone as a friend until they demonstrate something different. I enjoy having creative exchanges with others, like-minded artists, or writers.
Thank you for reading, commenting and your visit. I appreciate all the feedback (good or bad) you care to offer.
Feel free to reach out by email for private exchanges if you wish.

So true ignorance is bliss. Well done. It amazes me how we convince ourselves we are not culpable as a nation for all sorts of things. I have made a rule not to talk politics with friends and I stick to that rule. Great piece. 🤗Joni
I find it is safer and easier to keep friends or acquaintances that way. I am confident in my own beliefs but am open enough to listen but I don’t engage often especially when I know based on what I have already heard a person say that our politics and beliefs are totally different.

Well thank you, Joni. I too have such a protocol with family and friends I know are polemic to what I believe in religion and politics.
