Poetic Soul

My keyboard is an extension of my soul; every key I punch reveals muted intimacy by contriving words and phrases given voice through recitation. An intimacy in peril especially in poetry where I lay bare emotions and thoughts to catholic criticism. Nevertheless, I do not write expressively for consensus; if I did, the first bad review would force me to give up writing and seek a different endeavor.
