My Pirate Story – Reviewed

Posted on January 15, 2025 by Karima Hoisan

I invite you to read a very well written and very interesting comparrison, by Adam Fenner  of my poem/YouTube, “A Pirate Story” to the real life story  of one of the only female pirates of the times, the infamous, Anne Bonny.
It is written clearly and beautifully and makes some very interesting points, I too was not aware of. I did not think of her when I wrote this poem, but I see now, through Adam’s analysis the uncanny overlapping  of the two stories…mine, poetic and Anna Bonny’s, historical.
Please Enjoy:

      Thanks a lot Dale for your feedback. No one has ever taken a poem of mine and done this. I felt his review saw deeply and perhaps unconsciously, I felt connected to the Anne Bonny of history. It has been thought-proking for me. I am extremely honored.
