In Book of Rhymes, the author breaks down his perspective on the power of writing, he feels writing is historical because it can out live you and give light to other generations. This is a book where anyone who is taking a leap of faith can relate to. If not anything, this is a collection of scriptural art that takes you on spiritual journey.

”Poetry is everyday life, it’s like brail, the reader can feel what you write you know what I mean? I feel like it’s a reciprocated remedy for the spirit. Poetry allows me to get shit that’s stuck in my head, out and express and articulate whats on my thoughts. This was never for attention.” -Slade

The consistent message in this book of poems, parables, short stories, is the author challenging the reader to think outside the box, subconsciously. Slade opens up about our primary language the Mdw Ntchr and about how powerful Black civilizations were and how we have that same DNA, in our blood. as fore mentioned in his first novel, The Alarm Clock, it’s time for us wake up. During that time, the Kemetic people, came together to build these prolific monuments to show generation after generation, how powerful they were. By them building these monuments, such as the pyramids, they created an economy for their whole population, the whole civilization was wealthy; this is the power of unity, the black community needs to come together and learn from our ancestors. Book of Rhymes, is a monument that will live throughout generations for the people who can relate to the message.

Fun fact: Kemet means the black community (kem-unity).

This novel drops September 3rd, the ninth month of the year. This was a nine month project of pure dedication. This is a new vibe as Slade exposes his creative side. Follow, this is an unreleased poem by the author…

Elevated like a cosmo

They wonderin where i went

Where i go?

I go

Higher

Stayed down too long

But gravity can’t hold me down, No more

No more?

No more suits, llc

No more ties

System fed me lies

All this pain

I never cried

Sung to my rhymes

Like a caged bird

Lifted off

Indica

Stay in trees

So I built a nest

Habakuk 2 verse 3

Vision on tablets

built my legacy

Where i go?

Say hello

to the bad guy

I’m gone. Peace

“Its gon be like one of them bibles in the baptist church you pick up during the choir time. People really might sing some of the poems in there! But its written by a real one, you know what I mean, y’all know the writer. If you want to research who wrote this, I’m right here; it’s all for the love of humanity.”
