Let me start by telling you that some of the poetry in this collection is written in an African American vernacular and offers insight into the African American culture. Some of the poetry is emotional and others take the reader on a journey. As well, some poems are told from a male point of view while others are told from a female point of view. Further still, some of the poems in this collection are from real life events and some aren't about anyone at all.

The poems are not written in any style. They are written in free form and rhyming. I have never really cared for poems in styles like haikus, sonnets, odes, etc. I always just let my words run wild on their own pattern. If you ask me, some poems lose their flow when they are forced into a style.

Stolen from its rightful author, this tale is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings.

So, I invite you to enjoy this journey and any constructive criticism and suggestions are welcomed, but I ask that you be polite and respectful in doing so. That is not to say that I wish for you to rate it as five stars and leave an awesome review. No, if you honestly think that it is a one-star collection, then give it one star. However, I ask that you be respectful and polite in your review. Afterall, it's not what you say, it's how you say it.

Also, please check out this fabulous LitRPG that I have been enjoying from a cool cat named R. R. Quan. It's called At The Precipice and it's really engaging. I'm enjoying it very much.

Thank you.
