All of It
written by: Steve Dooré
The guilt of having fun
the wastefulness of boredom
The stench of hypocrisy
The hope of democracy
The confusion of existence
The futility of resistance
The comfort of solitude
Hidden in the nude
The silence of the majority
Ignores the voice of the minority
Your fragility feeds my humility
In the face of the beauty of utility
The comfort in repetition belies
the cowardice of routine
The texture of mundanity
Cultivates my dreams
I want it all so I can give it all to you
But if you don’t want it I guess that’s ok too
I am a 39 year old Dad of two, husband to one, who works in Equality and Human Rights. I am passionate about social justice, equality and mental health. I have always wanted to be a writer and have always been an avid reader of both fiction and nonfiction. My favourite writer of all time is a fairly predictable choice - George Orwell. However I enjoy books across all genres from Nick Hornby to Maya Angelou, from Hemingway to The Hunger Games series. I read a lot of books on politics, history and philosophy. When not reading I am usually found listening to music, my other artistic love, of playing with my kids and/or cats.
