There's a connection that draws you in. Words that captivate your emotions, bringing you into the thoughts and expressions of the poet. This same connection sometimes brings you to tears while being immersed in truth.
This book of poetry expounds on Urban injustice.
While a mother discusses a way out by just BREATHING, she's able to come from behind the brick wall. The brick wall that's stolen your cries, your fears, your mind, your smile, your child; and cause misunderstandings of who, what, why and how we got knocked down!!! All we want to do is breathe on the streets where we roam near our homes.
My poems are about the disrespect we suffer because of our beautiful brown skin, our lives are being taken without regret, and our loved ones suffer this repeatedly day after day.
The richness of our Black history is often overlooked and not identifiable in the lives taken.
I write to expose the wrong being done to my Melanin people that are suffering!!
Why? Because the color of their skin, our skin, when all we want is to Breathe!
Poetry draws, it sees the heart and accepts me. Allowing me to release and not look back with regrets.
My motto Blessed to just BREATHE !!!!!
