'Urban' literature transcends to an entirely new level When a contagious illness of pandemic proportions spreads and threatens the world as we know it, would we stand up and meet the threat head-on, stand aside as long as it had not yet affected us or ours, or be forced to stand down - ignoring the illness' voracious appetite and thereby getting mowed over in the process. Or further still, would an attempt to contain this growing behemoth, inadvertently result in the creation and unleashing of a new terror upon the world. A collision of epic proportions was inevitable, because what most of us failed to realize, is that there would never be a singular gate keeper, as we all have a duty to hold fast and protect the fence.
