Audacity of Poetry: Political Poetical Savory Sauce

By George E.

The sheer audacity to speak what one is thinking and contemplating is imperative but rarely achieved. We want to express ourselves, and poets do so, rhyming for rhymes sake. The message we get from society is, Be quiet, and dont make waves or rock the boat. The comedian gives it to us in laughs, making us feel good; the poets expression is rawer, offering a thought provoking and emotional release. The daring needed to express yourself is paramount to being true to yourself.

The poetry of author George E. Samuels will open the door of not only your heart but also your mind, helping you to hear the word of truth and lightwords that begin to make you think, heal, and be inspired.

Lighten your mind, make your steps strong and lively, and keep smiling as you experience this journey of audacity through verse.

Sheer Audacity

Dedication

Dedicated to those who don’t have a poetic or any voice to express their thoughts and want to say something. It’s important that we express our thoughts, and ourselves, but many do not. We live amongst the silent majority and the statuesque so the over bearing and over burden in this society can control the media expression and try to control all for their own gain to the detriment of everyone else or as they have labeled it main street.

Well comedians, musicians and poets can continue to express their voices to be heard over the silent screams of those trying to put their words together to express themselves. Let that never change or be silenced!

Also as always I dedicate all to my family with love and the Supreme of all.

Introduction

Is it time to hear tough healing words, think strong and speak up then think healing thoughts through the poem Dare To while you heal that aching heart. Let it be said, I said, it has to be said

Do you like spicy words, pepper on your meat, butter on your potato, hot curry, or salsa instead then you want to delve inside and enjoy this thought provoking dialogue dedicated to taking the audacity to speak out and share while you enjoy the poem titled Political Savory Sauce..

George shares his heart and words of song with all in need of savory words that too can heal you and get them through their day. Poetry and rhyme is the way that words can play to heal you in your way and help you say what you are thinking but no words come out of your mouth for others to hear, so they can stop thinking it and rest knowing it has been said.

Yes the sheer audacity to speak what a person is thinking and contemplating is the imperative that many don’t speak of. We want to express ourselves and Poets’ express their love of expression, rhyming for rhyme’s sake. Be quiet and don’t make waves or rock the boat. The comedian says at least lets laugh at it to make people feel good. The poet says express ourselves and we then won’t stress about it. The audacity to express ourselves is paramount to our being who we are and so let’s do it, but keep smiling at the same time.

When you read the poem titled Sheer Audacity you will see if you can take the sheer audacity to express yourself, open up and appreciate the poet’s lyric or the comedian’s so-called joke.

The Audacity

You have the audacity to tell me what to do

You have the audacity to make me do that

You have the audacity to sit there and watch

Tell me I am late

Tell me who to hate

What to read

What to say

And how I should say
