The dance between words on a page has the ability to move us in many directions. How we react to those words, both as a reader and a writer, tells more about ourselves than we might think.This book is a collection of poems ranging from Space to Earth to Family - from the vastness of the Universe to the intimacies of interpersonal relationships. Life, and the meaning of life, is many things to many people. Examine our existence. Examine ourselves. Can we draw many parallels? Maybe.Whether our lives are touched by poetry or not, words have staying power beyond pen on paper, words spoken aloud.It is not always what we write that carries weight in our lives, but what we don't write - the pauses, the spaces between where we stop - the unwritten words. Truths often live between those lines.

I write about the theatre of the absurd, of which there is no shortage of subjects or topics. This is a book steeped in satire. It is not for the feint of heart, or the humorless drones that plague our world. You know who you are.Be forewarned. I don't write like you do. Read the Disclaimer-This book does not contain political correctness.The Old Lady doesn't tell people what they want to hear. She tells them what they need to hear. If you have a problem with the Old Lady, take it up with her. But trust me, she doesn't care.Freda is her own woman. She is one of a kind, and proud of it. She tells it like it is-The World According to Freda. People living on the fringes of their minds now have a Messiah. Just not the one they hoped for.As for me, I'm just the conduit. As any good writer knows, once you create a character, they take on a life of their own. I just try to keep up.P.S. This book did not employ sensitivity readers.
