About Me
I’m a poet and novelist living on the Upper West Side of Manhattan. Have a background in critical studies, particularly of African-American poets. Besides seven books of poetry, my work includes a fiction trilogy, short stories, essays, and a musical drama. I find inspiration in my neighborhood, politics, art, and nature. I call the street “my Muse.”
