商品簡介
This poetry collection contains nine pieces of my experiences. I call them poetry fragments for the spoken word. Messages so necessary, important, and so urgent that I need to "shout it" as other spoken word poets indicate. I wrote these poems as I overcame human trafficking abuse. I still sit in this circle as I communicate to authorities, as I send message after message to agencies that are supposed to help. I'm not quite sure what to call this state - tortured scientist, human trafficking, kidnapping, abduction, captivity, an invisible jail cell. What do you think? Exactly, what is this? - as America promises to be a land that welcomes immigrants, asylum seekers, and those fleeing a violent land. I live in Nevada. We could blame this on their prostitution rings, the illegal sex trade, or an odd attitude toward women. But the trafficking started in Texas - a red state, thousands of Republicans, and conservatives. I was pretty darn conservative as well - to live right, be educated, be a leader, start your own business, understand right vs wrong, honor your own ethics, morals, and integrity, and for God's sake, wear your cowboy hat and boots. It really started there! Where I was raised, where I had lived for my entire life. So I stand as a poet overcoming human trafficking abuse. One of my poems asks us, "How do we measure an experience?" Another says, "when our city slants toward injustices."
Even another poem states, "I want the poet in me to outweigh the harm, the atrocities of human trafficking, the injuries, the haunted thoughts, memories of being tortured, beaten for no reason," openly, as I pleaded, but really begged the President of the United States. I begged them. So, I stood to overcome human trafficking. I wanted more than this, freedom, without restraints, without a master, without someone who could be violent toward me at his will. I wanted more than this. I wanted to overcome human trafficking. This collection contains pieces and fragments of this effort! I stood as a poet and poetess.
