Motivation for the Masses: A Poetic Autobiography, vol. 1 & 1.5 (Volume 1)

Motivation for the Masses is a “coming of age” autobiographical account of a young poet growing and finding his voice in the world. The story is and will be told in a series of volumes. It is more of the story of the life of his poetry than of the life of the author; this along with the use of volumes creates a unique experience for the reader. The purpose of this work is to motivate readers to (1) appreciate their blessings, (2) learn from their mistakes, (3) think optimistically, and (4) use what they have been blessed with to be a blessing to others.

Abandoned Breaths: Poetry, Quotes, and Poetic Prose (First Edition)

What happens to the words that never escape the confines of heartbroken souls?When someone chooses to vacate your life, they seldom take everything with them when they leave. Closure is elusive. A heart still has questions. It is ruthless in its inquisition and stores every one of them in your soul.Conversations. Statements. Declarations. Endless dialogue. Wordplay. Rebuttals. Pleas. Questions. Resignation.Where do the words go?The ones we wanted to say, but never got the chance? They live on. They don’t leave with their Muse. They stay behind.Abandoned. Clinging, building, breathing, and aching to be heard.Abandoned breaths longing to breathe.I feel them emerging, and for once I do not stop them.I let them flow.—-Abandoned Breaths is the debut poetic collection from Alfa. Between these pages she has gathered the warehouses of the unsaid, and weaved together the voices that have remained silent in our heartbroken hotels. All the abandoned breaths that we hold on to after serving time in heart warfare never really go away. They cling to dusty shelves, tucked into darken chambers among past wreckage; longing to be given life. She has cleaned house and opened musty windows, letting pulsing words breathe and transform into poetic release. The focus of these writings is to give the heart and soul permission to ache after love and loss.The author is unapologetic about her realistic take on heartache and grieving. She touches on the past, trying to make sense of her experiences, to move forward.This book is filled with timeless and vintage feeling poetry. It will touch every individual that reads it -as we have all experienced heartache throughout life… no matter the age group.
