Description

"So today class, we're going to study poetry."
Like many other school kids, I remember the day my English teacher said those fateful words. I was the one who groaned the most and drew the teacher's attention. "I'm sure you'll grow to love it, Andrew!" She said with aspersion. Little did I realise that day how much poetry would change my life. When I did write my first poem I realised I had found a way to finally say all the things I could never say. Poetry became not only my release but also a way for me to deal with my pent up and unaddressed issues. This book, like its predecessor, is a safari through those issues, some serious, some not, and some downright ridiculous.
