I am all that I am - Poet, Writer, Spoken Word Artist, whatever I need to be -Therefore I am! - Born in Meridian, MS, Educated and Graduated - Jackson State University "Jackson Fair, Jackson Dear, Thee I love my dear old college home, Thee I love where ever I may roam!" - Member of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc. "Goodwill is the monarch of this house" - Living in Milwaukee, WI "It ain't where you from, it's were you at!"
I march to the beat of my own drum in my own band with my own rhythm. I do my thing! My son Jonathan is the man! My motivation!
I am a full time artist. I have a complete book of poetry (I Dream) and two CDs of my work (I Dream and Soul Searching). I am available for features. If I am in your town, come check me out.
Hope you caught me with Dasha Kelly on HBO Russell Simmons Presents Def Poetry! Season 6, Episode 39!
2006 was big! I was on the Milwaukee National Slam Team (For the 5th time). I was/am captain of the Milwaukee Midwest Slam League team (Champions 3 or 4 years in a row - I quit counting). I won the 2006 Akoben/Word Up! National Slam. I was apart of the Brother's Speak Feature Series in Toronto Canada. And many other features and workshops.
I also do creative writing workshops. I have a program entitled "I Am", which can be tailored for every scenario and age group. The Workshop concentrates on the importance of self-awareness and individuals telling the story they know best, the one about themselves.
I am available for features and workshops. Just hit me up, let's talk about it.

MyHotCommentsDan, Trials and Tribualtions will either make us More Holy, or More Sinful depending [GREATLY] on our Relationship to God/with God, Amen? Because when testings come (and they WILL come "IF" you are Walkng right), WE will either TRUST God's purposes and FIND Peace, OR "we" can Trust in our OWN plans, start walking in the "Vanity of our mind's, thereby developing a NEGATIVE OUTLOOK or DISPOSITION and thus DEVELOPING A BITTER, and CYNICAL heart. We may NOT like our situation (and in MOST cases "we" WON'T), But because WE Are CHRISTIANS; because we are a "Chosen generation; because we are a Royal Priesthood; because we are a Holy nation and a Peculiar people...WE... "SHOULD"... LOVE...GOD and WE...MUST...TRUST..."HIS"...WILL FOR, OUR LIVES!
The Bible says "And going a little further, He threw Himself upon the ground on His face and prayed saying, My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass away from Me, nevertheless, not what I will [not what I desire], but as You will and desire" (Matt.26:39 AMP).
The Bible also says "For I know the thoughts and plans that I have for you, says the Lord, thoughts and plans for welfare and peace and not for evil, to give you hope in your final outcome" (Jer.29:11 AMP).
Is that where the phrase "Trusting God's Purposes" came from? Hmmmmmmmm?
