Poetry Of The Impoverished Mind: Thought Provoking

My name is Sharard Mitchum. I'm a poet, songwriter, playwright, and youth mentor. I'm 34 years old and love to express myself through many written art forms. My poetic name is MindofaLeader, and I was inspired to write poetry after the death of my younger sister. She was a great poet but never had the chance to share her talent with the world. My journey to becoming a published writer is also inspired by my 1 and 14-year-old daughters as a way to show them that you must work hard in order to make your dreams come true.My poetry can be described as conscious poetry because I create characters that deal with real life situations. My poetry speaks to people from all walks of life; it transcends ethnicity or social status. For that reason, I truly believe that my book "Poetry of the Impoverished Mind" can be a bestseller. Moreover, I have been performing at spoken word venues such as Urban Grind, Copper Blue, Kat's Café, and College Park Public Library for national poetry month and Hodge Podge Coffee House. The response I've gotten from people has been positive and very encouraging. I hope my poetry inspires you.
