I'm the aberrational poet your English teacher warned you not to read or follow into the literary abyss. If you steal my poetry...I will find you in between fogyish metaphoric lines. I'll be armed with my quill and papyrus where at will I can wield my power as a writer to erase you from my realm. I will smudge you with inky darkness and do unprintable things like a ghost in imaginary darkness.
In full disclosure, I am absurdly mad and take no responsibility for my actions if crossed poetically. But, otherwise, I’m a simple free spirited poetic writer wordsmithing outside the grammatical lines and rules. An easy going romantic rebel at heart.
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.

This was painful to read. Especially the last 2 lines. 🥺
God bless the beautiful soul! 🙏💕
I agree. I have. Unfortunately, domestic violence is committed by both genders fairly equally. With that being said, our boys must never raise a hand to any woman. Vacating violence is a must-duty for oneself.
No lines can tame the sadness of this story and yet with your poetry you managed to say the truth and give us a chance to think about what we did or didn’t do to stop it from happening.
Domestic Violence is and will remain a disaster and will keep taking lives, till it’s not taken into consideration for what it is: a real society issue

I believe we recognize the need to do something, we just lack the courage to act properly in most cases. Thank you for reading and your comments both.
