There are times when you just want to talk aloud or just blurt out whatever comes to mind. Well you can. Sha Rene' speaks her mind and uses her words to get across a message. Most people can't just sit there and listen to your opinions or your outlook on life or how you feel about your day or how things went in your past relationships with men or say the things back to the people who hurt you or laugh at all the funny stuff people did. This book does exactly that. Like, "Ntozake Shange's poetry for stage, "For Colored Girls," Sha writes these intense words from her African American experience, made for you to listen as a dramatic piece of Chuma Okoli on the canvas. It's like being a fly on the wall. In music there is the opportunity to ignore the words to a sing and listen along to a beat of the drum or the string of the violin or the tap of the piano, but with spoken words, u can git deep Lot's of slang in this book. She raps like that This book is "the spoken word" a form of poetry to song, a form of song in poetry and sad, amazingly honest and also funny. There are parts of this book that allow you to go with the writer through a given situation and in a colorful way let you bend the rules with her, let you laugh with her and cry with her and sometimes scream with her. Rap with her Words with a beat and beating up the words and then there is silence. This book although written is made for performance, made for the stage and an open mic. Made for one who wants to listen to what is right and sometimes wrong. "Words Can Explain": How you feel when you get up in the morning, How you feel when you are in mourning, how you feel when your work is done, How it feels to be Black and a woman and single and alone and strong and a child and also grown, How feel when you are the only one holding it down So listen up my brothas and sistas. Listen up
