"A true poet and a man of words, he constructs lyrics of love that are sure to capture any man or woman’s true feelings in his most recent collection Love� Koo. His current collection is the haiku form of "Black Erotica." Penned in a voice that is not for sensitive types, he uses rage, lust and frustration gracefully; anxiety, arousal and confusion eloquently; and reveals the taboos of sex, love and hate like we've never seen them before."
~Black Issues Book Review

He was introduced to African American fiction by way of a James Baldwin novel and has been engulf with our history, literature and culture ever since.
