19 Soft Compulsions contains poetry aimed to expose hypocrisy in wrong doings, criticise those who do wrong doings, express the importance in feeling, mental health and deliver passive aggressive messages to those who deserve to hear them. The most creative and effective way to ridicule the horrendous parts of life, or to reassure the victims of those horrendous things that life will support them and help them heal in many ways is through performance, song and poetry. Some of the poems are tragic, some have resolutions, all have the same umbrella message of 'look after each other in all fields of life'. The only mild exception being 'Prancer The Reindeer', a short horror poem partially written for the sake of horror.
