About Poetry Misfit

"Words hold a power none can fathom, with the ability to inspire lives or leave them in ruins." This is a quote I coined and adhere to when I create any length of prose or poetry.
I currently work at an integrative medicine clinic full-time, where I experience the duality of being both a student and a teacher. I am constantly learning about natural remedies and the amazing capabilities our bodies have to heal themselves.
I don't aspire to be a writer, I am one, even though I don't have anything published yet. I am aspiring to be a book editor though and joining this platform has been a great asset to exercising the skills needed for providing strong, supportive feedback.


Interests

Aficionado of all things creatively gratifying.


Poetry is my cheap means of transportation. By the end of the poem the reader should be in a different place from where he started. I would like him to be slightly disoriented at the end, like I drove him outside of town at night and dropped him off in a cornfield.
