Emotions are substance -- Love, hate, they are substance. Angels, they are substance. Maybe not what we commonly understand as physical matter, but spirit is substance. Spirit is real. For me, after everything has been cleaned and polished, there radiates love. Love is the source and ever evolving embodiment of manifest reality. Nothing exists outside of love...all else is illusion.

Each of us a Rough -- needing only the bench of experience combined with Faith. Faith is the cutting before polishing, every gemologist will tell you.

If you want to call yourself a Poet, don’t let anyone speak on your behalf - speak in own poetic voice. Don’t let anybody else speak about your abuse, expériences or healing. You not only give away your poetic license, you give away your power to feel completely. Any trauma will be diluted in this way & your cycles of repressed emotion will remain repressed in fragments. Worse, it will be coloured by someone else calling themselves collaborators. This is a sophisticated form of power usurping.

Just because your emotions are as good as anyone else's doesn't mean your poetry is going to be as good as anyone else's.

Can’t wait to share my work to you all emotionally brliantpeo with you art of poetry!
