VERSE is the poetic expression of Black Love and Black rage, Black joy and Black sorrow, Black sensitivities and Black sacrifice, Black wounds and Black pride, Black beauty and Black hope, Black strength and Black power.
An honest and raw book of poetry, combating the past with the present, the truth against lies, complete with a short story in full verse that ties the black lives of black lovers torn apart by the ocean from the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade to give birth to rage, hope, fight, forgiveness and freedom, all bathed in reuniting, yet emotionally and psychologically scarred bloodlines, both lost and found again in Black America.
From the bestseller of Curse the Cotton, author Mirika Mayo Cornelius, brings powerful Black poetry together in VERSE.
