Please tell me you are reading this because you absolutely love black poetry sites. I did a complete deep dive on Poetry Vibe and I am providing my perspective on it.
If you are reading this for the first time, I wanted to personally welcome to Poetry Vibe, your ultimate destination for exploring the beauty, depth, and richness of poetry. Our mission is to honor and uplift voices that have shaped the poetic landscape. Join us in celebrating 250 years of African American poetry, a powerful tradition that continues to inspire, educate, and connect people across generations. I think we have been writing poetry our entire lives and looking for the write combination of words that moves and inspires us to do more and to be more. I feel the power in my heart and soul and I take a piece of that everywhere. I really live this and not just talk about it.

The real reason I read the Poetry Vibe book because it is just a book about the poet expressing himself in a way that makes it feel real.
