​Experience

Sardonic Poet
December 2015 - present
Georgetown, Ontario


Hello, I am a Sardonic Poet.  Not the Sardonic Poet.  I am reality's student.  A student has no salary.  Why?  Because I only know what I don't know.
​

Sardonic Poet is a person at odds with (what is generally accepted by) those smitten with innovation. Sardonic Poet identify what benefits should persist in humanity's lives and lovingly mock those who are ignorant to the fact they are indoctrinated in a cult. The cult of innovation has few heretics, I am one such heretic. I will use "innovative" intelligence to reboot your mind and help you rediscover the value of spiritual autonomy (briefly). I am bipolar so I have no autonomy. I know what I sound like, and if you are drawn to my ideas it might scare you, it might amuse you to know that through your cherished dignity will thee find God’s tune.
