MEN CRY TOO
From my experience, in the African American community, men are taught that it is unacceptable and inappropriate for them to cry openly. It is perceived as a sign of weakness. They are told to, “suck it up,” and “hold the tears inside.” But, is that a reasonable request? No, it is not. Men have feelings and emotions—just like women. It is discriminating, unnatural and unreasonable to request that a man suppress his emotions. Does that make them less than a man? Of course not—it makes them human. |
My Thoughts and Prayers
$

As I journey through life, I have been on numerous journeys and I have had the privilege of meeting people who have touched my heart. Some of the people I have met have enriched my life and inspired me to soar, while others have literally broken my heart. My Thoughts and Prayers is a compilation of my two poetry books, The Skin I Am In and Transformation of The Mind, Body & Soul. This is poetry that comes from my heart and soul.

Decrees and Declarations of Authenticity
$
14.95
Growing up in Louisiana, I was taught that receiving an education is valuable. However, if you attended a top Ivy League school and received the highest degree in academia, but you do not have common sense, you will not be able to function in society. My mother, my elders and the Bible have taught me many things. This book is only a minute sample of phrases that have impacted my life. The title of this book, Decrees and Declarations of Authenticity, simply means that I am decreeing and declaring my opinions of the following phrases. Again, these opinions are mine.

All of the poetry in this book was created by me, less one poem, written by Patsy Bickerstaff. Some of the poems come from my two books, Transformation of The Mind, Body & Soul and The Skin I Am In. Many of the poems came to me as I began my journey writing this book.

The Skin I Am In

What poetic justice is contained throughout the leaves of history captured in this book! The author chronicles what at first glance seems like the vestiges of a particular journey. The book then takes a turn and proves to be quite instructive as it deals with no one’s particular journey; yet, the book is about everyone’s journey and maybe even the reader’s. The Skin I Am In is about the use of time, contentment, survival, living and love, and ends with a retreat to days past. There is a pattern in the book that engenders winnowing through troubled places as one strives to the keeping of covenant promises in the scripture.
