As a direct result of enslavement I was born Howard O'Gilvie Graham Clarke in Xamayca, The Land of Wood and Water or The Land of Springs, as Jamaica in the Caribbean was originally named by its indigenous inhabitants, the Carib and Arawak or Taino Indians. This book contains a series of what I would like to think of as thought provoking poems. It is mostly extrapolations from my views of the African experience in the New World. By extrapolation I mean what I have come away with based on my concepts of the black experience as it pertains to and our social, political and economic status derived from our being enslaved. It is surely not the only views on the same situations as I’m sure other people may hold other different views. There are also poems on the lighter side presented here that I think balances the book’s content. These are my passions that I have chosen to pen to paper and publish here. I hope if nothing else it gives the reader pause for thought.
