About this title

Synopsis

V Verse Is I is a contemplation of poetic encounters centered in the house of good and evil off the beaten path of toxic relationships, homelessness, and higher education. Comprised of poetry, exposé, creative nonfiction, literary criticism and theory, V Verse Is I serves as an intrinsically new form of hybrid storytelling that showcases the ever-evolving poetic identity of a dynamically experienced, and beautifully surrendered, writer and thinker.
