“Sometimes I fear that the drug-free Flynn – searingly manic, then catastrophically depressed – is who he really is. But because in that form he is not acceptable to conventional society, he has to be drugged so that his emotions are tempered and his behaviour controlled. Perhaps we are blindly living in an Orwellian society where individualism is feared and the biggest pressure is the one to conform. Perhaps Flynn is sane and the rest of the world is mad. The thoughts go round and round in my head.”

“The essence of a poet lies not in articulating thoughts, but in bleeding raw emotion onto the page. It's a tumultuous dance, a desperate clinging to individuality in a world striving for uniformity. To feel is to be an anomaly, a rebel against the current. And therein lies the poet's struggle - a lifelong fight to preserve the untamed spirit within, a battle waged with every word.”
