I'm an up and coming poet and author who stutters but is determined to get my work out there to the open minded. Money signs don't impress me much, it's not about how many books I sale it's about how many souls I can touch. I speak the truth, from the perspective of one, myself. I've never had the priviledge to speak freely until I learned the power behind the pen; my thoughts remained confined in the comforts of my mind until I accepted the gift of writing. Now I'm prepared to step out of the box and fight the negative odds that are sleeping at my front and back door. The fake and phony are becoming a past tense, the faithful and the real more than deserve the chance to shine. To all who feel what I'm saying, let's support the movement, the transition from the too commonly addressed unrealistic verses to some free minded open hearted words of genuine complexity that the people can relate to. In less words, lets get this bull off the radio, tv and internet waves and encourage this real art to take over and inspire!   The struggle I take oath by… It’s the struggle that keeps us humble, unstable at the most inconvenient but prized souls after… This is for the many who succeeded the few left deserted and the majority still working to defeat it... It's the means that defines our purpose Hand creates us into the beings we were destined to become The high tides and shallow waters Steep mountain ranges and rocky pavements The suns brightest shine The crack of light murky gray skies offer I have felt the intensity of all I appreciate the Christmas presents received in return The struggle I take oath by... This if for our will to conquer the struggle To conquer life and become the best we were destined to be
