welcome to my world

By Gary Trudel

Welcome to my world.
Welcome to my thoughts.
Welcome to my visions.

So begins Welcome to my world, poems that navigate the author's search for "the stars, the moon, the ultimate tune," alongside his road to healing from satanic abuse and drug addiction. Whilst some poems speak of suffering, others are full of joy-celebrating survival, the act of writing, and the sacred connection to Mother Earth, the Four Directions, and to the Creator. An act of prayer and acceptance, they are also an invitation to find humor and enjoy the present moment.

Watching the junkie make the play
moving and grooving
the shuck and jive
live a life of constant strife.
Thinking, downtown style.
No desire for the game
doing it clean and serene.
Still thinking, downtown style
moving and grooving
living and loving
thinking, downtown style
freedom, downtown style
living it clean and serene
all the way, downtown style.
