Poetry as Prozac

Thank goodness that Jamie Tucknutt discovered poetry. As much for us as for him. For poetry is a great release that has enabled Jamie to tackle his demons, namely that of child abuse. As he says, poetry is written as much for the writer as it is for the reader. It is a cathartic exercise, excellent for stimulating positive mental health. When a writer is brave enough to share their experiences with a wider audience their work can help others with similar experiences. Never underestimate the power of poetry. Reading Jamie's 40 poems is a pleasure and it is a privilege to be invited into his innermost thoughts. He revisits good memories and terrible ones while also adding some really thought-provoking work, which will make you think differently about time and anarchy...
