A strong and bravely written poem, which could, in some quarters be considered controversial, being so clinical, as it is.

Keep writing and speaking your mind. Poets are the last true prophets in the world today.emmett wheatfallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07466994239329611740noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-387663636127765777.post-62198513331961039332013-04-23T17:11:59.981-04:002013-04-23T17:11:59.981-04:00Don't blame you for reaching your boiling poin...Don't blame you for reaching your boiling point.
