The Call of Victory

Jael Wright 1954 (Clarkville, TN)

Free verse
Break out!
Break out of your malodorous prisons
of doubt and despair.

Don't let mental shrouds of fear enfold you.

 Give in!
 Give in to victory’s lofty call,
 ascending to heights unknown.

Spread your wings of joyful laughter.
Even dare to fly!

Promise to scale these rapturous heights, to lay hold on the immortal.

About this poem
