About Me

What's up peoples,

The Art in War first edition, my first self published book, is now available for $10. This book includes some of my most performed and personal pieces. You'll find performance and page poetry alike; stemming from my earlier works to some never before seen or heard pieces.

If you're interested, contact me for your copy. This book is 53 pages worth of my own work and details some of the darkest, most humorous, most enlightening, and complex times in my life. This is the first edition of The Art in War and will only be available for a limited time before the final changes are made to the manuscript and cover so get yours now.

The Art in War features poems such as 'the wire', 'blue moon', 'the spoon in the road', 'people person' and of course 'the art in war'.

The Art in War first edition will be on sale for $10 for a limited time.
