Publisher's Synopsis

Sometimes I must move slowly like a cat...


Sometimes I must move with dispatch.


There are times I must be silent, unheard.


Just like the morning spring sun shining over the harmonious tweeting birds.


Then, there is that one moment in time I must ROAR loudly


For everyone to hear and fear everywhere.


Bringing their hearts and minds to understand ONE THING.


I AM the TRUE Lion and the King!

Ya Sankofa! is a literary journey of reflection. It is an artistic expression of cultural awareness in a contemporary sense from a historical lens in the form of a series of poems.
