I have me, an iron-willed heart

That truly I chose to only follow

Like a North star in my journey

.Naysayers will attempt sabotage

.

But- do not pity me when attacked

My critics will charitably offer me

As much doubt as I can choke on

In fear my triumph includes…them!

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.

      1. So very true and it says more about their character too. That’s why as artists and creative folk, we must surround ourselves with people that do support us and cut ties with those that don’t. Lovely poetry.

  2. Beautiful piece. We all have our critics. We have to just write for ourselves and from our own hearts. Someone I love and respect in our community told me that recently. I am so glad she did. Hugs to you and your family. 🤗 Joni
