Poet of the week!! May 10th 2018
Oh wow guys this week we are celebrating the amazing +Miss Poet Miki I feel certain that just about everyone has had the pleasure of Miki's beautiful comments, presence, encouragement and support, a truly beautiful soul, she is also a bloody amazing poet. She can manoeuvre between forms and structures, swimming between imagery, metaphors and simile and equally creates amazing depth in each of her piece....well done Miki, you are an asset to our community.
The heart is not enough!
What is love
if not surreal essence
immaterial
In a carnal world
the heart is only for breathing
there is no place for loving
We don't live by ideals
but of rational deals
You are a talker
You are a worker
...or you're a fish out of water!!!
