The Mind of a Poet

Poetry has been my way of releasing anger, aggression, frustration, and confusion onto the world. All poetry conveys meaning but not all poetry puts force behind the message. Subtle messages and nuances may create a new light within people but the light isn't bright enough to blur their vision to see the truth. My goal in writing poetry is to make the message not too complicated but deliver it with a punch instead of an offering. The harder the audience is punched, the more inclined they are to be open to new ideas as well as aid others to see a new light.

Similar to people that disagree with music due to the profane nature. "Bad words," are not everything in the song. Most of the time they are used to increase the emotions within the message. Ultimately, the artist is trying to get your attention; and that is why I wrote "The Mind of a Poet, " to get your attention with a punch.
