I used to have a REALLY bad habit of writing impulse-letters based upon how I was feeling at that moment about a particular situation and sending them out before I had a chance to calm down and think rationally about things. The letters I wrote out of emotion instead of using logic ended up making situations worse, so instead of actually putting these letters in the mail I began to save them.

Perhaps my most artistic literary work to date, this book expresses the multitude of life lessons that I've learned while growing up, and especially since being incarcerated. My crazy sense of humor and love for music is sprinkled throughout this loosely autobiographical project as well. This book also features many of my original rap songs that I have written and some of my favorite poetry.

When an individual is incarcerated, it is a constant struggle to find and maintain a sense of self-worth in an environment where we are often treated as "less than", regardless of how much we may have changed for the better. These poems are reflections of my thoughts along the way of my personal journey while navigating the darkness behind these prison walls.
