I started my own book of poems based on my life and "Welcome To My World" is its title. It's a work in progress so I hope anyone who reads it likes it and let me know what they think.
Aesthete In Harlem
Strange,
That in this nigger place,
I should meet Life face to face
When for years, I had been seeking
Life in places gentler speaking
Until I came to this near street
And found Life--stepping on my feet!

Ha this is how I felt about going to college the first time lol. I'm sure a lot of people feel this way. I love how you were able to articulate this view into a poem. I like this baby, great job. I appreciate your love for writing. Most people are age are not concerned or doing this stuff, but of course you are because you are the greatest baabe and you are one of a kind!
