Time and Circumstance: Memoirs of a Frustrated BBoy

It is an overwhelming pleasure to be appreciated for doing what you love to do. I've always wanted to be immortalized between the sheets of papyrus. If only my grandmother was alive to witness me accomplishing this dream. Since she's off to a better place, I hope you find enjoyment in reading my poetry. I'd like to send a shout out to Dr. Seuss who inspired me to rhyme. Respect due to Edgar Allen Poe for "The Raven." Gil Scott Heron, Langston Hughes, Nikki Giovanni, The Last Poets and all black poets, philosophers and scribes of our times. Much love to hip hop artists and lyricists: Jay-Z, Tribe Called Quest, KRS-One, Rakim, Mos Def, Nas, Common and every writer that I have read who has inspired me to write. Much respect and honor due to my Mom; without her there is no me. It's my goal to inspire as I have been inspired. I wrote this book so that someone reading it would know that fulfilling your dreams is possible.
