<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><strong><em>FOLLOW ME ON THIS: </em></strong></p><p><br></p><p><em>I am a Black woman poet; the declaration/clarification is necessary.</em></p><p><em>But where and who I am now is not where I started 10 years ago. Locations, loves, lessons-everything changed. </em></p><p><br></p>In the last decade, the song of how this Black woman held it down and held on became a battle-cry instead of a lullaby. Those years, these poems chased/birthed/illuminated changes I wasn't always ready for. But I knew this was true journey, so I breathed deep, bound my wounds, and kept moving. (And in the words of my poem FLOW, "looked damn good while I was doing it". Just sayin'). <p><br></p><p><em>FOLLOW ME ON THIS is a Black woman poet at cross-roads. Singing. LOUD. </em></p><p><br></p><p><em>Wit/ loss/ magic/ truth/ homage. Necessary information. Those 10 years re-built me, branded me, (almost) broke me. </em></p><p><em>I'm celebrating/documenting that decade. </em></p><p><br></p><p><strong>Maybe you'll hear your own voice here. Maybe not. But take the journey. FOLLOW ME ON THIS.</strong></p><p><br></p><p><em>I promise revelation.</em></p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>These poems, they sing & shout & stomp & breeze" <strong>-</strong> <strong>Sierra Melcher, Bestselling Author & Women Mentor - </strong> </p><p><br></p><p><em>If you believe in the power of poetry to move people and start revolutions, check out my dear friend Stacy Ardis Dyson.
