Inward Reflections Poetry Contest

28th October 2020 For Chantelle Anne Cooke Inward Reflections Poetry Contest If on reflection The aforementioned question posed was thus Then this is the very reason i began or started writting poetry in the first place To reflect on pressing problems life and loss and the world we all find ourselves living with in If i was to lie i could say i was well educated clever and he without sin so entitled or worthy to be listened to But that would be a lie and make a mockery of who i say i am To be or not to be Who, why, what am i on the inside In simple terminology i am male 48 year's old single with no children and British Have an older sister and my mother is my only surviving parent as my father passed away in 2001 But in regards to my view on inward reflection i refer you to my hobby of writting poetry As most my work is dedicated to this very subject matter and making sense Of who and what i am and lies dormant beneath and on my inside Not to be liked for how other's wish to view me on the outside Life is not a performance piece of art for other's entertainment If the outside does not in fact mirror the person on the inside Otherwise it is totally pointless and irrelevant
