Step onto the wire with these unflinching poems. Tightrope Walking is a raw and honest exploration of living with chronic illness, where every day is a battle fought with fierce determination. The verses confront the physical and emotional toll of a body in revolt, from the thunderous pain of fibromyalgia to the suffocating fog that clouds the mind.
Yet, this isn't a book of surrender. It's a defiant roar against the storm. 
This is for anyone who has ever felt like they're walking a tightrope-teetering between despair and hope, and discovering the power to prevail.

And if you do so, then consider participating. ______________________________________________ If you aren't familiar with system of my Awards, They're different from most contests in the following ways: 1) There's no need to participate in just a particular category, you just have register into the awards and your work will be judged. Their will be multiple categories and Awards, and your work will be given an award if it is the best fitting work for that particular Award among all the entries. 2) Poetry only-These are a Poetry exclusive Awards and only Poetry is allowed to be submitted. 3) A sole judge-The entries are going to be judged by me and the final decisions are mine. 4) Not particularly fancy or so-These Awards are minimal and is something I do because I feel there aren't enough contests highlighting just poetry instead they have poetry as an individual category. ______________________________________________ Submissions open till 1st October 2025 If you feel confused about anything please read the Awards once, if it doesn't help, feel free to reach out to me, I'd be more than happy to help. *YOUR PARTICIPATION MATTERS

Almost Human

42 parts Ongoing

Writing is a terrifying act of creation that requires us to push past the fear of being known and bare our souls to others. It gives us a glimpse into our multifaceted lives, both as writers who share their stories and as readers who bring their own unique experiences to what they read. Writing serves as a beautiful connection to each other and our world. This collection of poetry and prose is intended for those of us who feel we have lost our connections and sometimes feel a little less than human because of it.
