Poetically Baring My Soul
Poetically Baring My Soul is a poetry book that offers a honest inscription of trials,feelings, thoughts, and revelations. It creates a visual image from personal accounts within the expressions of the writings. Poetically Baring My Soul invites all those who have an acceptance of faith, a honesty and even accountability of self, and a vivid appreciation of metaphors and wordplay, to embrace the poems inside.
About the Author
I was born and raised in Danville, Il, a small town about 2 hours outside of Chicago. My parents, J.W. and Dizer Brown instilled values and principles of life in me at an early age. I enlisted into the Army 10 days after graduating high school and the discipline I received added to my upbringing, shaping me into the man I am today.
My love for poetry began through hip hop. I had aspired to become the greatest rapper of all time! Alongside the music, I would write little poems about anything from my surroundings, to my feelings, to my experiences. Eventually, those “little poems” turned into pieces of my life.
Poetically Baring My Soul is my very first book. It provides a testimony to the trials and tribulations I’ve faced, my growth into manhood, and expressions of my spirit, soul, and body. I wrote this book to honor God with this gift, glorify Him, and to connect with others who may share in my walk through life. I am a man of faith. I am confident that my poems will explain my purpose, provide insight, and give readers an honest look into my heart.

I know exactly where Danville, IL is – we always pass through it on our way to Indianapolis!
That is so neat, Scott!

It really does, Tiffany.
I can’t wait to read this! I’m a huge fan of intensely personal books like this. Thanks a lot for letting us know about it!
Glad to share, Melissa!
I don’t read much poetry, but the book of Psalms is always comforting and reads like poetry to me. I’ll have to take a look at this.
Psalms is my favorite book too, Deb!
