This is my third poetry volume. Per the description on Amazon: Ornery Owl is a curmudgeonly crone who does not play by the rules. She is a proud feminist and not the fun kind. She is a mother who wonders what kind of world she will be leaving her son. She hopes against hope that her words will prompt people to think and make changes for the better. The works in this poetry collection were written in the autumn and winter of 2020. They are filled with anger and appreciation, gratitude and grief, hope and outrage, trauma and healing. They cover topics such as abuse, bullying, body image, eating disorders, PTSD, misogyny, sexual assault, size shaming, and climate change. The words are the real, honest revelations of a disabled woman who was repeatedly misused before learning to respect herself. You may resonate with the words, but know that they have the potential to awaken painful emotions and trigger disturbing memories. Hopefully, they may also inspire those who need the nudge to become their own advocates. This book is always free from Kindle Unlimited.
