About

‘Getting past shame’ is about understanding, overcoming and transforming shame. I write from my own experiences of shaming and silencing. All of it is a resurrection field made rich on the rotting debris of my past. Wordplay thrills and lifts me, and here I explore and express where I am in the light of where I’ve been. I hope you’ll find it helpful in some way. Maybe you’ll enjoy some of what I create too. This is a place I offer short poems, alongside something of what has prompted them, and some reflection.
