About the Book

Convictions is a step into the new millennium for poetry. This book addresses a number of hot-button issues from history and into modern day. Some of these issues include slavery, abortion, terrorism, love, and even exploitation in Latin America. There are both negative tones and positive messages, attempting to find a balance in the many points of view in the world. Convictions is meant to open readers' minds to different lenses through which people view the world and history. Its exploitation of poetic license, searing political commentary, deep personal reflections, and fresh, lyrical style will appeal to a new generation of readers and raise interest in demographics not accustomed to reading poetry for entertainment.
