Abdiel LeRoy's website: https://poetprophet.com/


Abdiel is an amazing writer and human being, and because he speaks his mind, and writes his thoughts down, sharing with readers world-wide, he is sometimes censored, and that is something that I cannot stand. Yes, he's controversial, and that's one of his qualities as a human being. I don't shun, and neither should you.
