A collection of 60 poems that express the fiery emotions ("A Waste of Time") and bittersweet opinions ("Rude People") of an African-American woman who has experienced the extremes of ecstacy ("Man So Fine") and disappointments with men ("Fall is Not a Season") along with the stress of living life in an urban city ("Metro Spit").
Carolyn Gibson's poetry further chronicles her exploration of self-empowerment ("MInd Power"), and shows the appreciation and admiration she has for the spiritual challenges between men and women ("Truth Freed Me").
Carolyn's observations of relationships, extreme behavior, and the constant struggle to maintain a sense of self are chronicled in "Urban Poetry". From her "Once a Week Blues", to her "Celebration of Men", Carolyn's poems will stimulate and persuade you to read this book over and over again.
Available late June 2005
