About this listen
I have been in a low depression, partly due to the fact that I read Disability's summary of my condition, and it made me feel week, unable, and unworthy. It made me feel like all of my hopes and dreams are just grandiose overly optimistic fantasies.
But they aren't. These 42 poems remind me of the abilities I do have. So I publish them for you, so you will drink in their optimism and feel better about your suffering, as all is not lost for either me nor you.
The book is actually 3,364 words. I think I wrote the wrong thing as a mistake, and I forget how to change it officially...
