Conquer all fear 1
With joy 2
(And) a steady purpose 3
Poem 3 of a series of 5
Notes: Found poetry using snippets of text from “Letter I” of Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein. Page numbers refer to my paperback copy of the book, a Penguin Classics edition from 2003.
These snippets are from the second page of Letter 1. Word in brackets my own addition | Title my own | 1 from line 6 | 2 from lines 7 & 8 | 3 from line 20 |
Beautiful. You are clever to have sourced these and put them together. A work of love, I’d say

Thank you so much, Crispina. Yes…I did very much enjoy playing with these words. It’s almost like a puzzle…re-arranging the pieces until they fit together in a new way and sometimes that’s just the sort of mental challenge I need 🙂
