Transparency...the mere mention of the word makes some people hesitate. Many of us cringe at the thought of open and candid transparency. If your skin didn't recoil, well, you've achieved a level of mastery of yourself that most people can't fathom. In either event, through the pictorial depictions of this poet's written diction, peer beyond the veil of the finished product you see today and into the most defining era of his artistry.
Filled with glimpses of his life hidden in wordplay, metaphors, similes, and vivid depictions of his heart, "Transparency" has an ability to liberate us from the stigma surrounding transparency if you're brave enough to hear between the lines. You can expect to see his words materialize in your imagination, experience a bond forged between the reader and the artist, and be freed through relatability and each other's humanity. It may be cliche, but the poet's heart and soul are literally infused in every word. Everything that you will read is authentic. Everything you read is a poetic way of being transparent.
