Ok,i´m about to say my secret,its been a secret for 20years,only few people has know about  this.Its not about sex,as you might think readin the thread name!
I´ve been writing poems past 20years,and yesterday i took my first step releasing a book.All my poems are written in english.which is strange,but in my opinion,english
gives more to my imagination,many words means diffrent things,depending how they are used.I just tought is it possible to have a contact US or English publishers?
Maybe i´m dreaming too much,but i´ve been waiting to do this for a long time,and now i have enough material to do this.Plan is to put a complete poem to left side of
book,right side a drawning,and short clues about my ideas about the poem,in finish,but IF i could connect outside finland,then it doesn´t need translation.
Any help would be a good thing.

heres 2 for to read,one older and i wrote last weekend.



                 Modern Hell

Standing behind horizon
Theres a place we live
And be strong
In this world of maddness and miracles
We live instantly without
Any hasitation
Living in modern hell
Has Begun

All alone in this highway
Running out of time
Took Our life away
Living behind the mirror
Tieds us to the Ground
Consuming us slowly
Thru the pain
Hate is greener
Life was brighter
No friends Around me
In the days of thunder

Looking all those days behind us
The creatures of heaven
Are on the other side
Step forward to watch your
Back again
Darkened Forces I feel so tired
Wind Around these highland Falls
We reach the high
Where Our spirits are Gone

In this forever
By Our Desires and ambition
Our Cause is still undone
My tired Eyes are
Staring the horizon
I´ve seen this so many times
Hate is greener
Life was brighter
No friends Around me
In the days of thunder
Forever is never



                 The Fist

Today i was born is the way I am
I wish I was Gone
Before i Started to run
To You
To You
What kind of people we think we are
Am i someone You can hit for fun
For You
For You
People allways hate another man
Those are the things i swared
For You
Just for You
Carefull,if I were You

Son of yours is falling
Towards to You
I wish I was someone else
Because of You
Because of You
Am I mental,Am I man
I lost my way Since we Began
Yes its true
Yes its true

Am I somone to be lied on
I´m speaking words that You never heard
Because of You
Because of You
Are You suspecting that I am the only God
Are You the father Who poisoned his son
Just For You
Just For You

Begging for peace doesn´t Get any worse
The anger of wish
Is a voice You never heard
The fist
For You
The fist
For You

All those promises
Never came thru
You´re facing whats coming to You
Yes its true
Yes its true
Am I lost,Am I a man
This all has changed Since we Began
But still I´m coming to You
The fist
For You
The fist
For You

Best of luck, Marko.   I hope you can find a good publisher and your book will be a success.  I'd be interested in seeing the drawings that would accompany these two poems.

Bravo, Marko! You stand up guy!
Pull down your pants, let verses fly.
You've shared your dreams. How very gallant!
You're very brave to share your talent.
So pour out verse that you contrive
For without art, we ain't alive!

You know I'm in your corner, Marko. Your poems are definitely worthy of being published. I like the idea of the drawings too. Put them into a manuscript and start sending them out to publishing houses with a cover letter explaining how you want to present them. There's no time like the present, kid!  Smiley 

(I would also copyright them first. I don't know anything anout the copyright laws in Finland, but I'm sure you can find out.)

I have a few things copyrighted here in the US...if the laws/regs are the same...put EVERYTHING you have  into one batch...as if they/it was a compilation...this way you are only charged for ONE item...it is so much cheaper than to do it an issue/ at a time...copyright EVERYTHING you do...no matter how insignificant you feel it is TODAY...for you may change your mind TOMORROW...when someone rips you off and sells it to Hollywood for mucho dinero!!!

Good luck!!

Coming out of the closet of poetry? You didnt have to hide in a closet for your writing ability! It's nothing to be ashamed of! Silly man were you afraid we would see you as a fairy?  Wink

Go for it Boss. Nothing to be worried about, the only thing I'd say about "coming out the closet", is toot your horn,  cause ain't nobody gonna toot it for you.
It's like when we were young, you want to ask a girl to dance, ask ! The worst she can say is no, and you never can Tell. Go for it Boss.
There alot to be said for following a Dream!
