Poetry, birthed from Black MatterTransformation is the process of being changed or reborn. It is often assumed to be something we wait for death to accomplish. However, a true renaissance (as instructed), is to be accomplished over a life-time. Attempting to fulfill that purpose, I've come to know a freedom that allows me to live my calling (in real time), THAT in my mind, is rebirth. My desire, is to make my offering more important, than my fear.
