I am a middle-aged South African woman, living in Johannesburg. I began writing poetry towards the end of May 2010. I love animals – sometimes more than people! I am back after a break. Thanks for still being here, if you are! Missed you! xxx
The only bit which has me doubtful is the ‘exclusion of all else’, unless it is only temporary. Otherwise passion would be a destructive thing, indeed!
Mmm… I get totally involved in something I am passionate about and I think I am virtually completely absorbed in it. Everything else can fall by the wayside… 😀
