Hi! I'm Trudy (Legend). I've been writing poetry since I was seven. Poetry has helped me to process the pains and triumphs of living. I'm a bit like a cow when it comes to processing information. I take it in, munch on it a bit and spill the digestion of the info on the page. The 1st poem always sux. I meditate on that processed info...then spill forth the further digestion of the same info. The second one is better, but still not what I want to say. Finally, the the breaking it down to its root comes, and with it, understanding. It feels wonderful to "get it." What am I getting at...the systems of the world and how "it" operates.
