All Ways Black: Black Legacy + Poetry

Cree Myles

Cree Myles, Founding Editor of All Ways Black

I've always thought of poetry as secular scripture. There have been so many times in my life when I've leaned on just one phrase or passage to get me through, and it's never failed. If you're like me and consider yourself a sort of novice when it comes to poetry, I challenge us to commit one poem to memory this month. Have fun browsing the options, there are so many good ones to choose from! Happy reading.
