A sneak peak into "Too Black, Too Poor and Too Old to Apologize". It is a book of poems that was composed between the years of nineteen forty and two thousand and eight. Because so many things have changed from the forties to the present, many of these poems are obsolete, addressing the ideas of the times when they were written. Within those times we have made great changes. We have exchanged segregation for integration, detest and prejudice for love and understanding. Separation with cooperation and communication.

A sneak peak into "Too Black, Too Poor and Too Old to Apologize". It is a book of poems that was composed between the years of nineteen forty and two thousand and eight. Because so many things have changed from the forties to the present, many of these poems are obsolete, addressing the ideas of the times when they were written. Within those times we have made great changes. We have exchanged segregation for integration, detest and prejudice for love and understanding. Separation with cooperation and communication. Still a lot of people do not appreciate and are not willing to accept the changes. Although the changes were wonderful and sorely needed, still there are more than a few kinks in the King's armor. Parents can no longer discipline their children. Prayers and disciplining have been taken out of courts and schools. Television, games and cell phones are now our children's most favorite companions. To the young some of these poems maybe a little shocking, such as The Shoppers, The Little Kitten, Fantasy, The Sharecropper, Slavery and Chit-Chat. To the elderly, memories of troubled by gone days. Here's hoping one poem may relate to you personally. As a child I listened to my grandmother and her friends talk about how hard and bad times used to be. Well being born in the year of nineteen twenty eight, I still could not see any great changes, nor could I find any advantages of being black, not in a country considering me as a second class citizen, But thanks to Martin Luther King and his many helpers Thank God I am free at last, glory hallelujah free at last. May you find this book hilarious, delightful, entertaining, soul searching and worthy of your reading. BEATRICE KINCY WATSON
