Hello All. I have another interview under my belt and I wish to entice you
to click on the link below to get a peek at your friend, moi, from a new
angle. We covered a lot of ground this time and sometimes I surprise myself
at how much I learn about myself. Perhaps you’d enjoy this one too? I hope so.
Please take a peek.
- I think we are made of two parts as humans. One part donkey rider, and
the other part donkey. - This poem comes with echoes of the butterfly effect and I feel it’s appropriate
today as it’s a reminder of how when something like wars, mass shootings, and
unrest happens in one part of the world, it affects us all. Some of us discern the
imbalance and suffer from the disparity and then some others feel lost and
walk around with one palm outstretched as if weighing something (what?) or
perpetually checking to see if it’s raining; not grasping the enormity of how
what’s happening out there relates to how we are feeling today. So really, we
all hear the moaning and rasping strains. - What do you hope that readers get from your beautiful collection? A moment’s delight and I hope that readers find a glimmer of awareness that poetry is not a puzzle to decipher but a tool that offers a respite, or a much-needed long sigh in the intricacies of the day.
- Do you intend to write another collection of poems? Why or why not?

You can also tune in to the interview here in the comfort of WordPress, this
amazing blogging community we all love though sometimes it doesn’t love us back.
Friends, as some of you already know, Gremlins got me on Halloween night and distorted things in my homepage.
Disregard the eye sore please. I’m trying to get it fixed.
In the meantime, here’s a post I created on IG as heads-up to this interview.
Turn on the music, please. See what you think.
Thanks so much for reading my lovelies. And Merry November. 😜
