Born in 1977 in Boston, MA, I am a single mother of 4. I've been battered and abused by family, mates, friends, peers, and faced all of lifes tribulations. I have been homeless, beat up, raped, abandoned, and on the edge of giving up. But the beauty of motherhood gives me the strength too go on everyday. I find my poetry flows through me effortlessly, and in the end is therapeutic to my sanity. I hope that my words will touch others, for I know I am not alone.
