The Gentleman, for Taylor Swift: By: Damon Freed

By Damon Freed

Periodically, this book was written methodically upon nights spent in my dad's studio in downtown Sedalia, Missouri. My style of poetry is free-verse some call it, but I like to call it lyrical prose if I was to categorize it, poetry is what I prefer to call my writing, and plain speak essays of merit. My poems and essays combine spontaneous thoughts, and draw on planning sometimes, and are often pointed in this book I nailed most of the works upon their first draft, at least as much as I didn't and revised thoroughly, contingent upon satisfying my own sensibilities with her deeply in heart and mind, and with an awareness of football players' attitudes toward winning. I will remind, I was an athlete early on. And good. Excessive mindsets of winning are extremely counterproductive to artmaking, dictatorial even. Yet, we are all plagued by systematic thinking within a culture and on the greater whole, society. As artists we struggle to be free, not as anarchists within society, but within our art we must be free to express and to choose. Art is toward life, living, and freedom, to me
