As you experience life, you collect histories, manifest a past and rely on memories to preserve the wisdom in the present. The content herein is a mix of lived truth, imagination, ​and critical observation. This book, like the author, is the result of being part of society; a shared experience. Poems explore human interactions, condition, ​ and conceptualisations through the lenses of class, gender a​nd race. Everyday sociocultural, political, romantic and coming of age issues are explored in poems of varying lengths that may be close to home for some while purely literary for others. The content is mature, revealing and unapologetic.
