My interests are many: writing, reading, travel, music, used-to-be-a-dancer, and films that grab my attention and hold it.Music
My favorite music at present is that featured on the Mark “Rahkyt” Rockeymoore produced CD, also available as a download: THE GODDESS AND THE SKYLARK, featuring Nordette Adams and Aberjhani. Although I lent my voice as a spoken word artist to the CD some months ago, I only recently heard the finished product, and Rahkyt’s musical framing makes all the difference. In addition to some 18 pieces fire-spat by Ms. Adams and I, the set is infused with snippets of interview conversations ranging from the comfortably mundane to the cosmically sublime. Varied styles of music flow through it all like noble and amorous intentions through a satisfying dream.Movies
A lot of great films coming these days. My recent writings on Amazon include reviews of "The Fountain," "Apocalypto," and "The Weeping Meadow." Currently working on one of "Stomp the Yard." Good hip hop comedies and romances, excellent foreign films, hard-hitting independents, and Hollywood films that take creative risks generally get my vote.Television
I mostly use television to watch videos but you can count me among the fans of “Lost,” “Grey’s Anatomy,” “Prison Break,” and “Desperate Housewives.”Books
At the moment I have about 462 books catalogued on Library Thing, GoodReads, Amazon, and elsewhere. I've got at least another 200 to go so that makes it difficult to pick favorites. Nevertheless, I have to include my own: "The American Poet Who Went Home Again"; "The Bridge of Silver Wings"; "Christmas When Music Almost Killed the World"; "Visions of a Skylark Dressed in Black"; "Encyclopedia of the Harlem Renaissance"; "The Wisdom of W.E.B. Du Bois"; and "I Made My Boy Out of Poetry."Heroes
In larger context of my life overall, my heroes are writers who meet the challenges of the craft and spiritual leaders who manage to shine their souls with blinding luminosity before departing this world. I also take a lot of inspiration from the average everyday human being who makes it a point to live his or her life with some sense of integrity, respect for self, respect for others, and respect for love as an essential component of human existence. target="_blank">

About me:
View my profile on Creative Thinkers International
Literature and music have always represented twin angelic forces in my life. It was my passion for books that led me to manage bookstores for more than a dozen years after having served with the U.S. Air Force as a military journalist for eight. When responsibilities as a full-time caregiver forced me to stop managing bookstores, I picked up my pen and started writing again. In between doing what had to be done as a caregiver taking care of a parent at home, I managed to produce the books I MADE MY BOY OUT OF POETRY; ENCYCLOPEDIA OF THE HARLEM RENAISSANCE; and THE WISDOM OF W.E.B. DU BOIS. Since then, I've also completed two collections of poetry, a novel, and a book of creative nonfiction, all currently under publication consideration.
Who I'd like to meet:
I enjoy meeting free thinkers, ecumenically-minded spiritual human beings, creative artists of every discipline––fellow writers, readers, visual artists, actors, singers, musicians––and simple folks living simple lives. .. Layout by: My Layouts Creator

I hope that you're well and happy and enjoying the adventure of life!
May 1st, International Workers' Day, commemorates the historic struggle of working people throughout the world, and is recognized in every country except the United States, Canada and South Africa. This despite the fact that the holiday began in the 1880s in the United States, with the fight for an eight-hour work day.
On this May 1st, in honor of this historic day, I'm making this special wish for you: May your work be fruitful and your harvest bountiful!
Abundant Love and Sunshine,

and have bathed in the light of its living force
remember what you have felt;
and whenever you pass a tree
whether it stands alone in a wilderness of human making
or in the depth of woodland,
give a moment of your time to listen to its voice.
For in many parts of the land the trees are dying
only the hearts that know something of the true wisdom can save them. (Anon)
Time to welcome in the Summer, health and happiness.
Si usted ha paseado por el centro del bosque verde
y se ha bañado en la luz de su fuerza viva
recuerde lo que usted ha sentido;
y siempre que usted pase al lado de un árbol
si está parado solamente en un yermo de fabricación humana
o en la profundidad del bosque,
dé un momento de su tiempo para escuchar su voz.
Porque en muchas partes de la tierra los árboles se están muriendo
solamente los corazones que tengan algo de la sabiduría verdadera pueden salvarlos. (Anón)
Hola, encantado de conocerle.

Thirty-seven years ago today, on April 20th 1972, the Apollo 16 landed on the moon.
Wherever you are today, and whatever you're doing, I wish you a happy and safe landing!
Peace and blessings,
