I've been writing since I was a kid, it's something I've always loved to do. When I was in seventh grade I entered a poetry contest and took first place against a class of seniors. I entered quite a few poems on the website Poetry.com from 2003-until it wasn't any longer there. Over the past few years, and especially 2019-2021 I've posted things I've written on my Facebook page, mostly poems. In October 2018 I self published a book on Amazon/ Kindle {sub) titled: Change Your Wicked Ways. Although only recently I was finally able to publish the book to paperback. It is the first book in the series as I will publish more writings on this same subject. My reason for writing and publishing this particular book was in thinking back, I had changed quite few behavior patterns since 2003. I'd realized what a huge shift that was because as people, we are definitely creatures of habit. And habits are a really, big deal. Over the years, I have found that when I've wanted or needed to communicate to another, whether it be a person or entity, in writing is often the best way.

With not so much as a...

After reading all of the poems that I DID read, and I'm sorry I didn't have time to read them all, this one stuck out in my mind. It really says it all, and is a bit of an oxymoron. Very well written.
