The Hueman Lyrics of Greg Powell

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

The latest book from Greg Powell, whose work has appeared in Essence, Race Today, Black American Literature Forum, the Evergreen Review and more, comprises a well curated body of lyrical verses written to embrace the reader's mind and heart. Many find themselves reading aloud, maybe even singing some of the free-style choruses in rhythm. The poetry reflects that of the author's brand and mission, Being Hueman, and is at once fluid, visceral, vulnerable, and direct. Powell is also a drummer, and much of his work reads like the rhythm of his drum style. These are lyrics you marinate in, returning again and again to find new insights, which speak differently at every reading. The message is accessible, warm, lyrical, and consistently infused with tonality and rhythm. It's always the love of God, the love we share, and the rainbow of love that makes us hueman from core to core, bound together. Greg Powell's work has appeared in Essence, Jet, The Black Nation, the Black American Literature Forum, The Community College Review, Race Today, Haymarket, and other periodicals. Greg Powell is poet, drummer, teacher, and community-based minister of encouragement. His roots hail from Chicago's Pullman community. After Columbia, he taught language arts at CIS-229 in the Bronx and writing at the College of New Rochelle. After returning to Chicago, Greg served as a specialized adolescent case worker for Catholic Charities of Chicago. Greg currently serves as Minister of Pastoral Care at New Faith Baptist Church International. He also supports the Youth Ministry at the Matteson, Illinois church. On occasion, Powell teaches poetry at the Michelle Obama School in Park Forest IL. Greg is happily married to Deborah Ann Powell, and together they have two sons.
