And Where There Is Hate, There Is Me!

Animosity has always followed me
with such authentic grace
where others will agree
I don't belong, within this place.

I accept this fully
and take it on the chin
for I adhere to fact
and all that lays within.

No adverse feelings here
of ill intent or such
for I do here affirm
I hold no special touch.

I won't allow others
to place my works asunder
for I am proud of what I pen
from the reaches of Down Under.

People sometimes astonish me
with their belittling way
but I live to pen and fight
with yet, another day.

I may attract deep gossip
and sometimes even more
but that's what comes with all
behind poetics's door.
