Caren Krutsinger Poet Dramatic Monologue

Taking Back My Power Over Me

I have decided to take back my power.
To retain my position as CEO of my health.
I no longer believe in shingles.
They have no power here.

For I am not acknowledging them in any way after tonight.
I have been paying too much attention to them, letting them win.

As CEO I have now banished them in the name of 
Jesus Christ, and Archangel Michael.
They will not be with me tomorrow.
They have been thrown out, tossed out, 
I have asked the devil to leave my body alone now.

I have had enough.
More than enough.
I am now again my own CEO.
Creatively Engaging Order.

Panagiota Romios June 11, 2019 at 4:16 PM Victor is right! Shingles are not forever.. I do get the point of your poem. Tests by God means you are in for a big promotion in your life! Get ready... Panagiota Caren Krutsinger June 11, 2019 at 11:53 PM I am going to do my best to be the best I can. I wonder if this pain is to show me what a child with chronic pain is going through daily?
