The time I came to write poetry And to do it obsessively was When catastrophe happened to me My world collapsed around me because Of factors in my life which go back To my childhood my birth and before Due to fundamental things I lack I had kind relatives then no more And I was left with my Uncle Jack Who tried to take all I had away Which caused money problems to this day
He stole my inheritance and sued To take my home put me on the street I got a good attorney and beat Him while writing about his attack As outlet while he nearly killed me And now by men like him I am viewed As a threat but they have not stilled me Hotheaded conservatives like him Who always somehow seem drawn to me Make me liberal and take a dim View of their vicious chicanery
So in poetry I found a way To save my sanity day by day
This is a powerful statement made through example of your own personal crisis that will no doubt help others who may be going through similiar situations. Well done Steve.
Money often causes relatives to become strangers and enemies. I'm saddened to know what you are and have been going through.
My Dad had inheritance problems as well when he was alive, dealing with all his siblings, so I can understand how sad you feel, even when it's your uncle who did this to you, when he was supposed to be your protector.
I'm glad you and your attorney had beat him; but then you really have lost an uncle during the process. There is no real winner here, even if your uncle wins, he would have lost you as well.
A wonderful heartfel piece! Now I know you better.
