Synopsis

THE BURNING HEART OF A WOMAN AND THE GRIEVING SOUL OF A MAN Wright captures the experience of a young Black Male growing up in the dangerous streets of Brooklyn New York. His poems do not ask for permission as it abducts you and takes you on an exhilarating emotional roller coaster ride as you encounter the ups and downs, twists, turns, and loops that pulls you out of your seat as you experience all the highs and lows and all the emotions in between leaving you thoroughly drained. He uses free verse, personal tone and rhythmic playful language to encapsulate the contemporary forms of poetry while examining poverty, racism, relationships, faith, and spirituality.
