I am astounded at this beauty, and grateful for your work.
It reached the cornerstones of my heart as has much of your poetry.
The message here is piercing to the depths that will not be forgotten once the poem has been set aside. And that, dear friend, is the very goal of the writer. Thank you.

Brilliant work! For without fear, one will only stumble along in the dark!
In a post-coup America, an Illinois farm boy is drawn into the resistance by his brother's death. Captured, he is given a choice: betray his friends, or the girl he loves will be lobotomized.
The deep-dive literary meditations presented as stories, poems, and essays in The American Poet Who Went Home Again, A Mosaic of My Soul at Work, have captivated and inspired readers ever since its first paperback publication in 2008.

An extremely powerful poem penned here.
Positively wise words, and so true, spoken from
the heart;
Exchange your fears for tears:
need for control must stop,
let truth fall in teardrop. < < <-- too many are too afraid.
thanks for sharing these pearls of wisdom :)
warm hugs
