I am happy to stride boldly through dark places (2023)
by Chris Gage "Thee Poet Unhinged"
The second collection from ‘Thee Poet Unhinged’ Chris Gage, is an exploration of his own battles with mental health issues, heartbreak, bereavement and other assorted taboos and dark subjects.
This collection serves as a reminder that everyone we meet is either enduring their own battles and are seeking redemption or harbouring their own sinister, dark secrets.
Would we be able to shine the spotlight of our own scrutiny so readily on ourselves? Do we know what truly goes through the minds of those we pass on the street or encounter every day at work? Would we so happily and boldly stride through dark places?

For The Ommitence from Polite Conversation
