“I don't like poetry that just slaps violent words on a canvas, as it were.”

I'm not really quiet or shy. Ask any of my friends! But I always ground my poetry in life itself. Poetry is an art of language, though, so I am always aware of every word's meaning, or multiple meanings.
I have always made my own rules, in poetry as in life - though I have tried of late to cooperate more with my family. I do, however, believe that without order or pattern poetry is useless.
Each word bears its weight, so you have to read my poems quite slowly.
A poem might be defined as thinking about feelings - about human feelings and frailties.
