Writer's Heart

Angela Monique Parks is not a poet because of what she writes. She IS poetry. It is her being and her existence. Her life is an ebb-and-flow of rhythmic movement that becomes a buffet of verbiage. Angie has not invited you to read. She has invited you to sit down and feast like you were with her at her GrandmaÕs house. Her intention is not to deliver refined passages of scripted writing. You are being handed a plate of mouth-watering fried chicken, greens, yams, and hot buttery rolls. The seasoning in the verses is perfected and will satisfy every area of your palette. Get your fork and be prepared to be so full you will need a nap, but when you wake up, you are coming back for more and more again. Angie is a chef with a pen, and she has cooked up a family reunion for everyone who wants to come. Whatever you do, donÕt deprive yourself of this collection!
