BIO

Comment please, I like the support and advice. Its helps my writing. Inspired by poets such as Hollie McNish, I do not write conventional poetry. It's foundation is a mix between poetry and rap, but also just my passion for writing. This, I feel, creates a variety of poems about love and hate, but also about politics and race. I am just a young man who likes to express himself with words, and maybe I can create a lasting impression on people as a bi-product. I hope you enjoy the poetry you write but more importantly, I hope that instills an emotion in you, wether you agree or disagree.

Pray for Japan? Why Pray?

Before you read this I have thought again. Whilst writing this I was in the naive mind set that the only thing needing repair is homes, economy, towns, produce ect.
Thanks to a friend, I understand that emotional support is needed and equally important, offered through voices, prayers, tears, and media attention. So, I guess to conclude. A balance between donation and emotional support is needed.


They need your help
Not your status
Sadly, 
They need your money 
Not your words 
They need 
Not a voice to lead the masses
More tears to flood the people
They need not your prayers
And thoughts 
But materials and currency 
To rebuild that which they’ve lost.
They need not the cameras 
or the media flying round them 
Or the people of a god praying for them
Because today words do nothing 
but bring awareness which we already have.
They need our help 
through money and support, 
that takes the form of aid 
and then report a rise in welfare, care 
and a better life like before 
They need your help
Not your status
Sadly, 
They need your money 
Not your words 
They need 
Not a voice to lead the masses
More tears to flood the people
They need not your prayers
And thoughts 
But materials and currency 
To rebuild that which they’ve lost.
