Colored Poet



 

Colored Poet

 

Recently, the Library of Congress celebrated a sort of Colored Poet/Writers Day, in a country where those people of different skin coverage were underrated under the perspective of what we know as Manifest Destiny, apparently entitling natural European immigrants in the New World with social and religious structure over other immigrants and autochthonous people, ignoring, lacking of cultural knowledge, that poets, despite their skin color or origin, are not single people; otherwise, everybody could be a sort Molière, Victor Hugo, William Shakespeare, Walt Whitman, Edgar Allan Poe, or colored ones like George Moses Horton, Frances E.W. Harper, James Madison Bell, and James M. Whitfield.

Poets are angels, but not all humans are angels or rather poets!

My books, to be guaranteed, are deposited at the US Copyright Office of the Library of Congress, but sadly, there are still people with a Manifest Destiny's perspective.

My books can be obtained through Amazon Kindle or through other bookstores, almost worldwide, but being a colored poet/writer, it's been hard to convince people I am the author; and for this reason I haven't had any royalties so far.

These are my books deposited and protected by the US Copyright Office of the Library of Congress:

·       “AMEM ou L'Enfant et La Bête”.

·       “Femme”.

·       “Au-del d'une Aventure, un Bel Amour”, the translation of which being “Beyond an Adventure, a Beautiful Love”.

·       “Le Rêve du Papillon” Volumes 1& 2, (“Le Rêve du Prince Ailé”).
