Are You Listening? Thoughts of a Travelling Soul

A Black Panther hovers; scans, seeks from a perch. High above, he waits for heat to dissipate. He stays cool, conserving his soul from useless mental wastelands. When the time is right, the Black Panther's vision sharpens. Night vision; prey sleep, the sharp teeth cut. The Black cat of 'wordsmith-ing' comes to feed. He slays human thoughts for dissecting; to let the mind eat and grow. The Panther makes you aware of how dangerous the urban jungle is; past, present and future.


Readers, you stand warned. You need to feel the flow of Alonzo Whitehead. Deep is a 'cheap' word to describe this intelligent, insightful, smile-inviting, and sometimes, " sad it had to be emotions" collection. These are the feelings that come from Alonzo's poetry and spoken word. Reading this book is a way to hold conversations. And hold court with a Black Panther: Staying cool, while laying prints inside your mind.
