Writing, especially poetry, first saved my life. Then helped me find the life I want to live.
Now, writing helps me live life more fully.
Thousands of poems later, I have ventured into the world of social media and post my poetry on various platforms. In recent years, I have also made forays into spoken word poetry. I have much to learn, much yet untapped, from the poet within.
In just a few lines, I try to capture the point, perspective, and presence within.
Poetry, to the point.
For Black History Month 2022, and for any time we need a reminder of our own and others’ humanity.
