: About Me

I am not a poet,

I am not an artist,

My words are my sanctuary

This platform shall be my home

I do not seek approval,

I do not covet rewards,

My desires are more precious,

Believe me if you choose,

But if you understand me,

Then you have made my dreams come true.

My childhood ambition ...

to write.

My favorite memory ...

telling my father stories as he drove me to primary school.

Why I write ...

to clear space in my mind.

My inspiration ...

life, love, the universe...
