act now

act now

A Poem by Christel Grady

you preach

 

i speak

 

of demons

 

released into

 

the night

 

the day

 

I tried

 

to live

 

& believed

 

in something

 

other than me

christel, this is really an amazing poem, expressed with impacting effect
the reason and meaning desperately cuts straight to the heart with a sense
of searching before fully surrendering to worldly woes, such subtleness
touches the reader in a most powerful way, the form conforms to thought,
allowing the natural design of the words to flow through, beautifully written.

demons be damned.
if you're strong enough to actually believe in something, rather than say

enjoying the idea of it...

you're strong enough to take care of whatever demons you may release. and if you aren't, well, guess you'll learn something.

i enjoyed this. thanks.

i really love the way you expressed this,
and how you coupled choice words...
i am sure there must be a name for it [coupling words]..pfft,
i am no scholar; i just know i like what i read.....

be well, my sister of the pen
be well..........

Hey there....
The photo with this poem caught my eye, really cool. I just noticed you are from Portland---- my best friend lives there and this pic describes her perfectly. Must be a lot of you non-conformist progressives up there? I say it like I'm not one! Ha!
