soul poet: a book of fascinating micro-stories written in free verse, sonnets, and haiku-from an African American perspective. This journey begins with free verse, leading off with the Billy Collins-esque "King Étagère," and followed by poems like the Oscar Wilde inspired, "Life Is Never Fair." The next section is filled with sonnets. In this case, poems rooted in Shakespearean structure but populated with contemporary themes. "Sweet Jekyll" and "Dr. Mom" will not disappoint. Love poems come next, and with offerings like "Sexy Visigoth" and the ever-shifting "The Day We Met," don't be surprised if you choose to spend a little extra time there. And finally, there is haiku. These tiny nuggets of 17 syllables each inspire thoughts as deep as the Mariana Trench. "3.0" and "The Noble Expedition" are just two of the little gems hoping to be discovered by you.
