Why ?
Renaissance ~ Second Edition
Written in 2014
… simply, one of those brief moments experienced by everyone …
Why?
Why?
No!
I like who I am
and I’m not doing wrong
I like this stone
it is special to me
as is the portrait behind me
Come!
Live in the 21st Century
Get with the times
Presume not that you know
my character and personality
just because I am a model
and an actor.
These are my calling
That’s it!
Nothing more to be said.
… Oh … And before you go,
Yes!
In answer to your unspoken question,
I do have the same faith
Now live
and LET live
Adieu

Ken Webb is a writer and proofreader. His website, kennwebb.com, showcases his work as a writer, blogger and podcaster, resting on his successive careers as a police officer, progressing to a junior lawyer in succession and trusts as a Fellow of the Institute of Legal Executives, a retired officer with the Royal Air Force Volunteer Reserve, and latterly, for three years, the owner and editor of two lifestyle magazines in Liverpool.
He also just handed over a successful two year chairmanship in Gloucestershire with Cheltenham Regency Probus.
Pandemic aside, he spends his time equally between his city, Liverpool, and the county of his birth, Gloucestershire.
In this fast-paced present age, proof-reading is essential. And this skill also occasionally leads to copy-editing writers’ manuscripts for submission to publishers and also student and post graduate dissertations.
