Truth and Greatness is a collaboration in the form of a nonfiction
novella and two poems. In November 2009, Steffani Jemison
commissioned a poem from Houston-based spoken word performers
Michael "Truth" Graham and Khorey "Greatness" Smith. The novella is
her transcription, in narrative form, of the creative process of
the poets as they write, including their conversations about
language, politics, street literature, the art world, and music.
Two poems by Truth and Greatness, completed in 2010, describe their
writing process and their collaboration with Steffani. About the
authors: Michael ("Truth") Graham is a poet and emcee. For two
years, he co-organized the Secret Word Poetry reading series in
Houston, Texas, which brought dozens of nationally-recognized urban
poets and musicians to Houston. Steffani Jemison is an artist whose
work has been presented internationally. In 2010-2011, she was an
Artist-in-Residence at Project Row Houses as well as a Core Fellow
at the Museum of Fine Arts Houston. Khorey ("Greatness") Smith is a
writer and photographer. Since early 2009, he has worked as a
freelance creative and commercial photographer serving clients
throughout Texas. As a poet, he has performed individually and in
collaboration with Michael Graham at poetry slams in Houston,
Albuquerque, and Philadelphia. Truth and Greatness is published by
Future Plan and Program, a provisional publishing project featuring
newly-commissioned literary works by visual artists.
