I am virtually housebound Patty, I am mainly unable to leave the house due to my anxiety, I really resonated with this and I think this is a great way of educating people as well as writing an excellent poem. Well done this is sensational I think you can excel at many forms of poetry. love Meia xx

    Thank you, Meia! I'm so touched by your review. You are probably one of the finest poets I've read on FanStory, and I'm proud that you think I can excel at many forms of poetry - you are an inspiration!

That was great Patty I loved it, I try all new styles as well, that I never did.
You know I had to look up, what agoraphobic is, I wasn't quit sure. Now that I know, I think I'm agoraphobic too. :)

That's so sad. One of my former inlaws suffered from that. She didn't have much of a life. As far as I can tell you've followed all the rules for this type of poem.

Patty,

This is actually one of the best quinzaines that I've seen recently. Kudos, chickee. People will write them from time to time, but they don't often make much sense. Your does, thank goodness! And it meets the criteria! YAY!

This is a wonderful quinzaine about agoraphobia.
It tells the story of this phobia so well with so few words.
Thanks for sharing
Have a lovely evening

This is a nicely constructed Quinzaine. It is clear and interesting. It states a situation and then asks the question. Timely content, too. If this is your first attempt, excellent job. Marilyn

This work has reached the exceptional level

So true! Says a fellow agoraphobic. Nice tight little poem packed with truth.

"The outside world is scary
Is it a wonder
I stay in?"

I hadn't heard of this form before, the Quinzaine. I like it.
Well done.

    Thank you so much for the six stars and a great review. I hope you found comfort from another agoraphobic's words.
