  Chapter 6 - Disconnect - Disconnect is about the psychological action of disconnecting from everything that influences you in a negative manner. To not listen to the thoughts and voices of others who begin to steer your life, but instead, to focus on what you want and what you believe in. In short, it is the disconnection from outside influences, replaced with the connection to what's inside.

  “In poetic prose, I revisit the scars of childhood abuse, molding me into a hollow shell of womanhood. Navigating immigrant pressures, cultures clash, tugging me in divergent paths. Unraveling buried trauma, self-destruction consumed, shattering false identities. Intuition emerges as my guide, leading through mystical realms to rebirth. From unworthiness to purpose-seeking, I rise, embracing happiness, truth, and destiny’s dance.” —From the author   This is the author’s poetic recollection of being abused as a child and how the aftermath shaped her to live her life as a shell of a woman. She takes the reader through the front seat of her mind as she navigates the pressures of being the daughter of brown immigrants and how the clash of cultures pushed and pulled her in different directions. Discovering the trauma stored in her body, self-destruction from the inside led to the inevitable death of her false self. Learning to trust her intuition and the universe, getting lost and found in the world of magic and her prophetic dreams, ultimately guided her to the rebirth of an awakened identity. She went from not feeling worthy enough to live, to searching for her purpose, pulling herself out of the hole, finding her happiness, and never looking back. She learned to live her truth, love herself, and instinctively play with her fate.

  what if / I actually – am – a bird / my cupped hands / opening to release me... Phil Barnett's relationship with birds is so close that his poetry blurs the distinctions between himself and the birds - a kind of ornimorphology where rather than giving the birds human characteristics, the reverse happens, and he imagines himself as a bird. Phil Barnett is a photographer, writer, musician, artist and naturalist, who has a passion for the birds that kept him company through a long hard illness. His photography and poetry have quite a following on social media, which is where we found him, on The Daily Haiku. His skill as a photographer leads to an acute visual sensibility, and his slow recovery moves from a tick sheet his mother had to fill in for him, to extraordinary poetry - full of wit and wonder and spectacular language.
