Many times in my adult life, I have had what I would call an "awake out-of-body experience." During these times, I was peeking in at my life in a dream state; thinking this cannot be my life. I found myself asking the questions of what happened to the child who outsmarted the world and what happened to the teen who had all the answers and confidence to boot, and the young adult who never settled for can't. Well, somewhere along the way, the only thing left of who I was once was, were just shreds of an almost non-existent life. Now, don't get me wrong, there were some good times along the way, but it certainly was not always smooth sailing. But what came later in life was no comparison to the...

... Undone... happened by accident in my mind, but nothing is an incident- All the stars line up accordingly. But for the sake of the project, reader and my mind-this came out of nowhere. Amid battling anxiety, depression, and CV-fatigue I began to write these feelings and thoughts. More than 80 percent of the work was created at a fleeting moments & times -sometimes seemingly at my best, and other times at my worst. Poetry became little nothings, but for that critical time in my life, they became something again. - the everything of nothing. From a more philosophic view I wrestle with life, thoughts and why (at times) everything seems like nothing and other times nothing is everything. Life is masterpiece, but truthful -an undone masterpiece.

Blood on the Forge

Praised by both Richard Wright and Ralph Ellison, this classic of Black literature is a brutal depiction of the Great Migration from the Jim Crow South This brutally gripping novel about the African-American Great Migration follows the three Moss brothers, who flee the rural South to work in industries up North. Delivered by day into the searing inferno of the steel mills, by night they encounter a world of surreal devastation, crowded with dogfighters, whores, cripples, strikers, and scabs. Keenly sensitive to character, prophetic in its depiction of environmental degradation and globalized labor, Attaway's novel is an unprecedented confrontation with the realities of American life, offering an apocalyptic vision of the melting pot not as an icon of hope but as an instrument of destruction. Blood on the Forge was first published in 1941, when it attracted the admiring attention of Richard Wright and Ralph Ellison. It is an indispensable account of a major turning point in black history, as well as a triumph of individual style, charged with the concentrated power and poignance of the blues.
