Good-afternoon everyone... To my amazement this site is nearly 7 years old and still years later we continue to showcase the next generation of black poets... Many have went on to self publish poetry books and I for one feel honored being the first to introduce so many writers to the masses... On that note, lets get on with the site update... First, there is brother Paul Alleyne... This talented man has been writing for years and decided to share his work finally so please enjoy: Midiocraty, RUSTED OUT, CONUNDRUM!, I like straight lines, and ENTRY TO HEAVEN... Also, we have Kommon Knowledge who has already released a book... Feel free to absorb his words literally: Enemy ME, Soul Sisters, Faces of Death, Wannabe Black Panther, and Color My Revolution Black... Not to be out done, Orlando S. Boykin has submitted a few pieces... It is always nice to see black men embracing this art form: Your Memory, He's No David, Happy Birthday, An Audrey Jones Jones, and To: a former lover - From: a living poet... Back again, sister Mumble has more pieces for one to read over... This young woman shall be attending college in a few years; as my people as a whole need to continue to educate ourselves... Go ahead relax while intaking her flow: Untitled, Missing You, A Simple Kiss, You Are My Sister, and My Heart is Mending... Can't forget about Poetic Beauty and do take a moment to view her new pieces; The Man, and Dangerous... Popular poetess Joyce Foote has supplied me with more poems, as daily I get email regarding her... Know that the sister is still writing and shall continue to give birth to masterpieces: ~ In Love Again ~, Baby please listen,, ~ Concrete Angel ~, A life time of loving you, and Love is never saying goodbye... That's a little poetic slang, so lets move on... Then there is Mania M. poetry and this young gal has patiently waited for me to post her work: LIKE NO OTHER, BLACK AND INTELLIGENT, and NO LONGER IN MY REACH.... Also, returning with new poems is Jessica Ammons and here you go: Puzzled, Unconditional, and Sistah Big Bone... Recently, I reconnected with my old poet friend Timika Burton and now there is more of her work to read over: Wow!, Aaah...., Reminisce, and How Could You?.... My Nubian sister Aye C. shall awaken all, as it's nice to come in contact with another soul who has a passion for poetry; Third eye crying, Communications, Queens and Kings, Lack of knowledge, and CHOICES, CHOICES.... If you haven't already please feel free to join our small community over at MrAfrica Poetry Board (------ Have a nice day... Mr. Africa - April 23, 2008
