World-wide Warrior

You are desperately needed, but when will at the world-wide alarm

Sounding off heed it?

The outcries in streets beckon for the undeniable role

Which requires every last ounce of your mortal soul.

Cuz’ despite all hype, or false propaganda of the internet swipe.

Evil is crouching on every step; strangling folks, ready to digest,

With a kind of death strep.

When will you, world-wide warrior, finally deploy; to help every hurting woman,

Girl and boy?

Instead of staying distracted, steeped in unresolved trauma,

Cloaked as perpetual shame and drama.

The community certainly does not want another lazy passive man;

Living for self his whole life span.

But those who are ‘lookin’ for the fight, prepared, unafraid;

Ready to go valiant into that dark night 

To rescue those overwhelmed by sadness;

Consumed by fright.

You are desperately needed, but when will at the world-wide alarm

Sounding off heed it?

Author’s Bio

Karen Bontrager helps 16-24-year-old men, and fellas, 25+ stuck there due to complex trauma, make permanent shifts in their behavior from merely surviving in life to thriving through transparent coaching/counseling in one-on-one conversations and in group work, and through topic sensitive trauma-informed workshops in a program called, “From Crisis to Courage.” With this ontological approach, I partner with my clients to discover their essence, (aka highest and best self) by powerfully reflecting and listening to them. My clients quickly learn how to generate self-awareness and to voice their own relationship needs in a clear, constructive way by learning key coaching techniques/evidenced based counseling approaches/tools to work past their traumatic events and addictions to move forward. The clients are then equipped to develop healthy relationships with key relationships: parents/siblings/friends, and with intimate dating partners because they have learned how to proactively use their voice.

She does a weekly Relationships Matter Monday LI article/poem/commentary for 16-24-year-old men and fellas, 25+, stuck there due to trauma, is a frequent contributor here, and has a bi-monthly podcast called Crisis to Courage to give gentlemen an honorable platform for learning how to use their voices in a way which gets respected, instead of turning to the old standbys: anger, isolation, and numbing behavior, so they can be the men they were made, formed, and created to be.

Are you a man, 16-24, or more mature, 25+ which feels stuck mentally, and is not able to move forward due to a traumatic past, which shows up as anger, isolation, or various numbing behaviors, and needs support? Or, do you feel something gets in the way emotionally from you loving self, others, or having the life of your dreams, but are not sure what? Please DM me on Linked In for an opportunity to talk.
