She means that if they turn Boo in as a murderer, he will be sent to the chair and he will die but in reality, all he did was rid everyone of a problem. Sheriff Tate knew this and that nothing would be gained by arresting Boo and making him stand trial. I have a favorite quote that I came up with. "Please do not devour me, I wish to remain Boo Radley" This first poetry e-book is me testing the waters I guess in a way. I have been terrified for so long to share my poetry because I have been worried of someone making assumptions about my life or having the slightest bit of celebrity. I have been alone, withdrawn, isolated my entire life and to open that up is like a fish trying to live in a tree. So like Boo, taking me out of everything I know might hurt me in some way. I love to write poetry! There is this beautiful exciting confidence I get when I complete a poem that heightens my hope and lessens the fear and mistrust I have in everything! My thoughts do not come swift and because of the depression I struggle. It can take anywhere from a week to a entire month to complete a poem. Scattered Musings is a first step out of my comfort zone. It is a contemporary eclectic effort that I hope people will give a chance. I do not think the free sample of the first few poems really shows my talent so I hope people will buy this book to see what I am really capable of.ver menos
