All respect, love, and joy, goes to my Mommy, Hyacinth W.M. She introduced me to poetry.
I recall as a little child, watching my Mom, writing and reciting poems. She was also an activist. When my Mom stood and vocalized her works, I was rooted to the spot with utter amazement, awe, and respect. Her voice, stance, look, her very presence, demanded ones full attention. Very much like my grandmother – irony; my Mom told me before she died, that I reminded her of her Mother. Imagine that!
I never thought I looked like her, but I look exactly like her, lol! When I recite my poetry, I become her, as I hear her in my voice & feel her energies, within and around me.
But Mommy was no joke & in many ways, I am a lot like her. My Mom, taught me to always seek answers, always keep going, and no matter what, never give up, and that the mind has no limits. Before she transcended, I taught her that true love is real, change is possible, forgiveness is able, and accepting love is our right by divine creation.
I AM proud to have followed in her poetic footsteps, and published my own books of poetry (thanks again Antonia Valaire for giving me that push to do so). Mommy was the first publicist & poet in our family. I AM the second.
I AM taking my time, handling my business, and preparing, to fully immerse myself in my rightful place within existence. Unnuh watch di movements😉😄😊

Brother Ras Manga told me a few months ago, “make a way, where there is no way.” Since, I have been creating my own way all of my life, I saw no reason to stop now…
I took the liberty to contact my local newspaper “The Dallas New Era”, EST. 1882 ( Dallas, Georgia) with an idea, of posting poetry. The 1st letter, I am unable to share. But they responded & then I sent them my P.L.O.T.S.😉

Kingston Creative, in partnership with JAMPRO, is hosting a Creative Entrepreneur Meetup called Best Pitch Forward. On November 27 at 5 pm, ten creative entrepreneurs are going to be able to pitch for a pool of funds to kick start their creative projects!
Recently, we hosted two workshops entitled ‘Making Your Creative Project Investment Ready’, and ‘How to Make a Winning Pitch’, both led by Dmitri Dawkins CEO of Graft Ventures. Now, creative entrepreneurs who have projects in music, film, animation, software and gaming or any screen-based field, can apply to pitch. Best Pitch Forward is an exciting opportunity for creative entrepreneurs to share their creative ventures with a panel of three investors. From the applications, ten creatives will be chosen to vie for the chance to win an investment in their creative projects. The judges will choose the winner and there will be a People’s Choice award too.
But that’s not all – twenty applicants will also be selected to attend private B2B meetings with a group of wider investors in the first week of December. These private investor match-making sessions are intended to gain additional investment into these 20 projects and move these creative business to the next level. So… opportunity is knocking.. get ready and put your Best Pitch Forward!
Now more than ever, the WORLD NEEDS POETS & WRITERS. As Poets & Writers, we have an obligation to Humanity, to do our part, shining the proverbial light on human nature, as we help one another through life…
