"Deep Thoughts" arrives with a compilation of poetry, short stories, essays, and commentary addressing a variety of issues. It is humorous, risque, inciteful, spiritual, and intellectually-stimulating. It draws on the breath of the human experience and often draws the reader in through vicarious identification with characters, empathy with them, and comprehension of their predicaments. It often gives readers a sense that commentary made would be theirs or the issues identified with the values summoned belong to them. "Deep Thoughts" relates profoundly to their psycho-social and sociocultural experiences. One can read this book and be inspired or find it revealing. He or she may even challenge it, but what's undeniable is that it's provacative, compelling, entertaining, and interesting.
