Joe Maverick Biography

Do not be perturbed by the apparition you see before you!!

I am a freelance author, from a widely educated background and have been writing for 35 years i am greatly pleased that a poem of mine titled air balloon ride at the fair was chosen in 2014 along with the great fire of Chicago to be in the common core standards for grade eight language and arts as study matterial with the venn diagram method Of appraisal.'

I am interested in feedback from the public; they are the reason for my writing.  Some of

my poems are short & succinct & others tell a story.

 

I would like to see the literary flame burn bright in any day & age & believe that it can feed the

spirit & bring enlightenment.

 

I have updated the years on my writing time; have I been here 15 years already..? I shall just mention my book which is being published this year in the Christmas Season titled 'from poetry to prophesy' I wish all readers, enlighenment generally Whether or not they read it.' All blessings , Joe Maverick Poetry soup.

 

Proceeds are going to aid the work of the Lord through an Elim Church Charity which will Support actions in to raise awarenes of Child abuse, inc any ritual damage to them and support of field officers, missions to this end.' Wherever it is possible to reach them'

Poetry shall remain free, under Gods Captaincy'

If every word or phrase that has potential to be offensive to someone, we would not have freedom of speech. I believe it is the context in which the word or phase is used that is the deciding factor and really, as Jan points out, words phrases also are cultural phenomena in speech. We would have to invent a new poetic form called Blank Page, but then, that might offend poets who are suffering from mental block. :)

Indeed Linda Alice..Especially in the poem I posted its integral to the word structure And moreso in that particular Line..It fails in any credible way to, improve Readers experience.' Rather it muffles sharpness and delivery of content way too much' Thank you for your time and comment."

It's a shame we cant write pussy when referring to a cat, ass when writing about a donkey as well as queer meaning odd in our poems without the words being starred out - they have totally different meanings in the UK. hugs Jan xx

I know. It is so weird we can say the words here but not in our poems. I can understand blocking the F or C word, but most words like you pointed out are totally acceptable depending on context.

Thank you both for taking time to commet It is a sign of blamket or carpet ideaology As I see it now..I would have as a 20 year old been more in line with it ( but I was more immature then!) I see people ascribe it to themselves.' So its a word in constant use.' Or Mis-use depending on whose views? Anyway I See war which is far worse being encouraged And the emotive words used and actions are not Challeged as much as the should be.' Not that its tps's fault.' Yet starring my expressive is their Action.' And I protest.!!

The irony of the site redacting such words in the poetry is shown to be even more ridiculous because the words that are being disguised have been used in your comment. Seriously, what's the point of such folly when those same words are allowed here?

I am calling for God’s help in whichever way he delivers it, whether directly or through a human source. Amen. Poetry of God's presence being in all situations which I recognise here.
