The Red Word in the Blue Mind: Volume II is the second edition of what it was like being me, and this selection of poetry gives the reader a live look vicariously through my words and see it though my eyes. The inspiration was in the dark alley of a childhood memory and then brought to realization by a journey that brought me from those dark places to an even darker place called prison. My poetry has been motivated by religious ideas and philosophies, the financial success of being broke, to now being able to write books of poetry. It tickles the heartstrings of love and even dives in the depths of pain. Some of this work involves family, friends, or even casual acquaintances. The fun times as a teenager and the growing pains of becoming a man. It's all in this Red Word in the Blue Mind: Volume II. In this new edition I am introducing a new selection of my thoughts called Jewel. They are the quotes that I wrote while inside and have been living by them to express on my path of enlightenment, the very serious thoughts that one must have to rise above their current situation. Some people in the world who go to the elite schools and have the best of everything have raised up from a simple formula of life that once it is mastered the art is passed down from generation to generation. I have stumbled upon the fragments of the rip pages of this formula to try to share with the people what I have figured out. Yet I had to enclose it in the form of a poem. In the poem I had to hide from those that do not love the art of wisdom or success. Everybody doesn't read so my words until then to them it will never become red. This is bigger than Crips and Bloods or Democrats and Republicans. The Red Word in the Blue Mind: Volume II is a collection of my life collaged with the life of others.
