Poetry

The title of one my favorite songs by the group Danity Kane, who have long since dismantled, and also my favorite creative method of writing, brings me joy and pain at times. 

While I am no poet, I did come across this award I received for posting a poem I wrote on a site years ago.  It made me smile, even though I didn't think the poem was that great and they only gave me the award so I would buy their book, which I didn't.  The poem was ironically called Destiny, which is what I truly think writing is for me. 

I also received a poetry book in my gift basket that I won during the University Christmas party last year.  I think I should take a look at it now to get my creative juices flowing. Here's the actual poem...

Destiny

Divine being ordains it

Life sustains it

Everything happens for a reason

A consequence for every action

Shunning it is impossible

Fate is undeniable

To be a victim of circumstance

is to be an enemy of innovation

Invincible necessity

That’s what destiny is

Now forever etched in

the fixed order of things

Yearning for acceptance
