This Blog

....someone once said to me "I write because I have so many voices, and they are all dying to be heard..." I laughed at that statement...however, I think, maybe that's why I write so loudly (on the net)... I have a number of journals, blogs, sites...covering every voice. At least I thought they covered every voice...and I thought every voice was different...until I heard them.
Actually, they're pretty much the same. I'm the same everywhere- ....an Artist.

Anyway, this blog is of my poetic work. My words. My thoughts. I think I live in between stanzas....

All work displayed is copywritten, please- don't copy or steal...I'm sure God has equipped you with talent just as great. Tune into yourself- Tune into God, and write.

.....the journey begins....

I am a black man
You can not stop my purpose
…this is for living

I am a black man
You can not stop my progress
….this is for movement

I am a black man
I Run… I Fight.. Stand and WIN.
…this is for freedom
