Before We Begin.... Meet Kayla!

Meet Kayla

Behind her ravishing looks,
Her designer wear,
Welcoming smile,
And seemingly free spirit,
Lies her starving soul,
Her depleted esteem,
And the absence of confidence,
Witness the searching for self.
Meet the woman,
The girl,
The child,
Sentenced to adult life,
Armed with mistrust,
And scarred intensely by the memories of abuse,
Confused by what love truly means,
Tarnished by the hands of a man,
Not knowing that where she’s running from,
Is exactly where she’ll land.
She’s simply reacting to life,
And this one so full of strife,
But it’s time the beast is beheaded.
His hand-print must be erased,
From her skin,
His claws must be ejected,
From her heart,
His grip must be loosened,
From her neck!
Return to her the ability to scream for help.
Return to her the feeling of purity,
Lead her towards maturity,
Place her before her true identity,
Free her mind,
And body,
From their ruthless captivity,
Tear down the foreign walls,
In her chest cavity,
Give her chastity,
And a much needed sanity,
Spiritual virginity!
Relieve her of her duties,
In this living nightmare,
Teach her not to hide her tears,
Or be ashamed of what they bear,
Teach her to fear,
Nothing but God,
And let her know,
He did not forsake her,
See, in her,
He built great character,
She’s a gladiator,
And a survivor,

Meet Kayla.

A Message From the Author!

  (Click the Image to Open a Clear View.) "Message From the Author" Dear Reader,  Thank you for taking the time to join the release of A Better Pair of Shoes "The Thinner Soul", a novel . The question of this piece is The Thinner Soul.  Is it within you?  Is it the soul without you? .. or Is it all around you?  Sometimes it's not about strait lines or circles, but rather, about the depths and the heights of our existence and how the ebbs and flow of those extremes impact the soul forever. This book follows the main character onto a journey of many loves.  Yet, with and even without each of these loves, her soul grows thinner by the sheer tug of war.  This story is a great exploration of things worth fighting for, and things worth relinquishing. It's no doubt Radiance is the central focus, and all the book's subplots remain superficial to the true scheme of things.  She remains resilient, and somewhat elusive until at last. I might also add, in thi...

A Better Pair of Shoes "The Thinner Soul", a novel- Chp. 37

  (Click the Image for a Clear View.) #ABPOS The Thinner Soul, Chp. 37 Jeff - I'd never guessed when I first started wondering about my heritage that it would lead to two parts Dunbar.  When we'd gotten back to L.A. Ketly and I had taken everything we knew to a local historical society archives library.  We'd waited nearly a week to sit with someone, and it was everything in one sitting.  It was an oral record logged there by my grandmother Dorsey herself.  She'd made it just weeks after my father was killed.  It included her knowledge of her father's meaning by naming her Dorsey Dunbar and paper records of her marriage to Timothy Earl Dunbar, a railworker.  There was even news clippings about my father's death and my grandmother Dorsey's endorsement of his full-breed status.  It was a sort of oxymoron.  A Black full-breed Dunbar.  It made me wonder if my grandmother Dorsey had been in love with Timothy Earl Dunbar, or whether it had bee...
