At one point, Ralph Culver writes that Grace, despite our meddling, holds doubt in check. May everything be true, and truth direct. His truths, brilliantly revealed, are direct, to be sure, and often stark; but the poet also witnesses to the grace that has favored him with uncommon insight and all but matchless powers of speech. -Sydney Lea.…
