Sail Away

A collection of maritime themed poems and short stories, accompanied by the authors photography and the artwork of John Ford and Jamie Comyn (mum).

About the Author

To date, I have spent seven and a half years on the ship, obtained my coxswains and master 24< tickets, working as a watch leader, bosun or both. Currently work at the Australian Maritime And Fisheries Academy as bosun and teacher’s assistant. Can honestly say, following my passion has been the most rewarding and fulling thing I have ever done. You haven’t lived if you haven’t followed your heart, come what may. The world is an amazing place, and so is humanity. Teaching and helping people.

Volunteering (giving of yourself is the biggest gift you can give someone or something). And, doing all this on a tall ship platform, at sea, is amazing.

I have Asperger’s Syndrome (Autism Spectrum). But I didn’t let it stop me from growing and achieving. Without it, I wouldn’t think in the unique way that I do, as it contributes to who I am, but isn’t who I am. I hope that you have enjoyed this book as much as I have enjoyed writing it, and the experiences that went into its making.

Seize the day.

PAPERBACK

The Abandoned Poet

Shade of all shades, many sights go unseen still beckoned in confusion, of a most stormy dream.

These eyes will shut, the light will cut upon opening; an unexplored valley of shock and disbelief, of many streams coping. Comfort mixed with fear… I do remember, the angry fire in one’s heart, an inextinguishable ember.

About the Author

After a young life, of almost impossible horror; my heart still never stopped beating for others. I stood up, with my head held down and later held high, tackling everything horrific in life, as I had no choice to and others shied away from the horror. Once I’d beaten just about everything the world could possibly throw at me, in agony, physical, emotional, mental and psychological torment of complexities I never stopped or had a peaceful day in my life… I didn’t understand why these things were happening to me… I didn’t deserve it and I was simply an innocent and bright eyed child who just wanted to frolic in the garden, reaching out my hand for love and friendship. So, I set out on a mission. Knowing I’d be sacrificing my life as a child, teenager and in adulthood with chronic alcoholism and chain smoking, just to barely get through these situations, I realized that no one around me was listening as I reached out for help for years. So, through my writing, I decided to help others. I dislike the world we live in and I didn’t just want a better future for myself… I wished the entire world, to have a safe and fear free future even though my future is now limited. I set out on a suicide mission in life by using my vices to face my fears, knowing the inevitable would be tragic from a young age. No one was willing to change the world and someone had to do it, at all costs no matter what the consequences may be. I fight for truth… I fight for justice… I fight for you… I am…

For whatever reason, life has a habit of putting everyone under the microscope and exposing every weak point possibly imaginable. The microscope exposes flaws, insecurities, fears, self-doubt, anger, rage and much more… The questionable nature of why we’re here and why the pain won’t stop no-matter which approach is taken is a mystery to all of us. Just knowing there’s no way out and nowhere to hide, as the miserable world around us tries to take us down with them kicking and screaming. The sick, the perverted (to whom tread no lines of boundaries or right or wrong), the greedy, the cruel, the violent and the utterly shocking! Many people have found all of this out, the hardest way possible…

Welcome to The Abandoned Poet and brace yourself, for a journey like no other…
