About BEING BLACK IS TRAUMATIC ENOUGH:
BEING BLACK IS TRAUMATIC ENOUGH!!!, “Walk A Painful Mile In Our Agony Shoes” Is a visual and word walk through years of black joy and pain, love and hate, struggle and progress. It’s an untraditional new style of poetry. That I call “Poe-liloquies”. Its the mixing of free verse and soliloquies. The books theme is based on being black in a America. Each poem will put you in the shoes of blackness as we walk, march and run through this pernicious society. Over 40 poems and pictures depicting black love, black unity, black creativity, black self-hate, black struggle and progress, discrimination and mental Illness and other more personal poems. This book was very emotional to write because each poem is tied to the emotions I felt before, during and after the Black Live Matter protest. It moved my spirit reading Alex Haley “ROOTS” and watching it on TV. I felt some type of way reading about how Emmet Till was killed. I got emotional seeing Rodney King get beat on TV. I felt some type of way seeing Trayvon Martin’s murderer get acquitted. I felt hurt and numbness seeing George Floyd struggle to breath underneath the knee of evil. All of those emotions I gathered and formed this book. The poems in this book will make you think, make you feel and make you imagine what could be. “MAGNIFICENT YOU”, I’m acknowledging and appreciating black women. “BLACK MAN, BLACK MAN”, is an acknowledgement of black men’s worth, the need to unite and the need to stop killing one another. HOW MUCH IS YOUR BLACKNESS WORTH”?, Will walk you through the delusional view of slavery being a necessary evil. The death, brutality and agony black people were forced to endure to secure white society extreme wealth. “RIP PIECES”, shed some light on the fact that some people are just mean and evil. People will hurt you sometimes mistakenly and other times intentional. “WHITE TEARS”, will give you my perception of hateful people who use their privilege as a vice to hurt, harm and destroy blackness. “I’M NOTCHA”, was inspired by James Baldwin unfinished book “I’m Not Your Negro.” It will take you through the history of hateful and racist words used to traumatize and degrade blackness. “DEPRESSION”, here I write about what depression looks like from my point of view. “I HOPE”, was inspired after listening to Dr. Martin Luther King’s “I Have A Dream” speech. It allowed me to think positive despite the evil that’s attacking blackness from all directions. “My MOMMA” is a dedication to my momma who was a beautiful black single mother of seven black kids from the southside of Chicago. “ONE DAY”, will take you on a journey of what life could be like for black people if these certain things were to happen. Writing these poems is what helped me cope with the emotional rollercoaster I was living everyday, I hope my words will help someone get through another day. God bless.

About Featured Book: Shine a Light by Nicky Corcoran
Free on Amazon kindle unlimited
£1.99 for Kindle
£3.99 for paperback
‘Shine a Light’ literally shines a light on real life experiences, some of which are personal to me. This collection of poems shows just how vulnerable we can be when nature and fate unexpectedly throws things our way – yes, life can sometimes be cruel!
In certain situations, we have little or no control over what can happen to us but sometimes, we can be lucky too.
Although none of us can escape fate, there are however certain things we can do to lessen the blow.
My message is simple. We need to take responsibility for our actions and work together to eradicate the greed, selfishness and ignorance that can obstruct and hinder the environment and the world in which we live.
The poems contained in this book will leave you, the reader, with mixed emotions. Some will make you laugh, some may make you sad and others will perhaps strike a chord within you and evoke happy memories of your own.
Shine a Light. Like a huge lighthouse towering over murky rough seas in vast, deep dark waters and rescue teams on the way. Would this be enough to bring you to safety? Would the rescue teams find you? Do they all have what it takes? Will they go ‘the extra mile’ or would some of them want to turn back too soon.
Have you developed the strength of mind that it takes to survive? Will you sink or swim or even keep your head above water?
