Demons

My Demons were expelled
But I hear their voices
from time to time they yell
defeatism things that yearn
for me to take them back...
yet I fear the shadows of their black
celled chambers of what if
yet to push forward in light
to learn, feed, and grow
share, inspire, and live
is a far better thing than death.

Where The Wild Things Are

I had a strange Jehovah's Witness step-mom growing up as a child, and as a result I could not read this book because of the "demons" pictured in it. My own daughter has not only this book but action figures as well. Now, as an adult it continues to capture my imagination with its simplisticly briliant artwork, I'm glad to see it finally come to film; here's to you - mom.
