I  would have to say these are my favorite poems because I can actually quote lines from them:
Poem - Tremble by Christine Lincoln
Poem - Invictus by William Ernest Henley
Poem - Saline by Dustin Nispel
Poem - Still I Rise by Dr. Maya Angelou
Poem - I Am A Poet by Egedeme Frangui

Other favorite writers/poets include: CM Spence, Carla Christopher, Femi the Dri Fish, Vision, Elijah Pierson, Maria James-Thiaw and Shashaawn Dial-Snowden.

The key to my style is that really have no style at all; I rip a page from my notebook, tack it to the wall then spit...and let the words lay where they fall.

I started writing when I was 21. The first thing I'd written was a song on a paper towel. I just sat down and felt inspired, so I started writing. I suppose it was Gods way of introducing me to another piece of myself; pushing me past egocentrism to the examination of my own heart and offering me a means to express its voice.

My perfect day...The day I become a Nobel Laureate

I am inspired by Love, pain, anger, joy, beauty, people, places and things. Inspiration can come at any time by any means.

My life is a single thread weaving itself into the fabric of eternity securing its stitch among the immortal.
