About
I’m 44 - neurodivergent, work in childcare by day and scribble questionable poetry by night
I spend my days negotiating with tiny humans and my evenings negotiating with the tiny humans living inside my own head
Writing is how I quiet the noise
or at least give it something else to do
My brain is loud
my emotions have no volume control
and apparently overthinking is one of my unpaid full time jobs
I write about the messy bits
the uncomfortable bits
the things we probably should not say out loud but absolutely need to
Poetry gives me somewhere to dump the chaos
without having to explain why my brain works the way it does
No filter
no pretending
no polished inspirational nonsense
Just real words
real feelings
a bit of darkness
a bit of humour
and the occasional emotional dumpster fire
Basically
I’m trying to make sense of being a human in a world that seems suspiciously designed by people who never had to deal with my brain
So I write
Because apparently therapy is expensive
and metaphors are free
