Wait the Water Fall

About the Book

Wait the Water Fall

Wait the Water Fall represents a path of patiently moving towards a life well lived. Written under the author’s pen name, this book is a lighter read than “A Day in the Death of Intolerance; however, the freshness, the rawness, with which this book was written makes it a must read.

Each poem represents taking a moment to look deeper into situations and conditions in which a person lives his or her life. People seeking to relate to others in harmony are encouraged to expand beyond yesterday’s practices and certainties of limitation.

Additionally, there is a request for the reader: "to read/listen without judgment, to create an opportunity of pure appreciation or gratitude and watch its effects in their lives.”

About the Author

“As a child and then as an African-American, I died long ago from the inside out - killed over and over in countless numbers of ways. Yet, I have not sunken into my grave for safety.” “I have not been hung by the neck until dead by my fellow Americans; however, the rope burns are there. I feel them every time I look into the face of a racist of any sort. From a black woman’s face of … degrading judgment to white man’s face of … self-righteousness watching a black family hang – … both, the essence and delivers of the same fate.”
