Publisher's Synopsis
So many times, in my life I was silent when I needed to voice my opinion, share my thoughts, and tell it like it really is.
My maternal family is quite dysfunctional and plagued with generational curses: addictions (cigarettes, weed, Pepsi sodas, food, gambling, bingo, drugs, sex), mental illnesses (schizophrenia, bipolar, depression, anxiety, attention deficit disorder, panic attacks), illnesses (heart disease, diabetes, cancer, hypertension, thyroid disease), and poverty. As a result, I have a lot of material for my poetry books. It is somewhat therapeutic to me to be able to say it, name it, and bury it.
Since writing the poems, so many things in my life have changed. I am a saved follower of Jesus Christ who is happily married with a child. I am actually in a happy place in my life, but some of those poems were sensual, flirty, happy, sad, outraged, or even dark, unfiltered, and raw because that was how I felt at those moments of my life.
