With My Eyes Wide Open

"With My Eyes Wide Open navigates life's catastrophes, failures, and coming through experiential slaughter revived and reborn to new possibilities. The biographical themes of grief, family, and resiliency amid the backdrop of racism and near poverty are explored with earnestness and no filter. This is confessional poetry where the poet acknowledges his wanton decisions with deft poetic skill, astute creativity, and imaginative flair. This is not a book of victimhood, but one of triumph!"--
