"T.L. Waid has a hip, urban style and a sensual swagger that winks provocatively from between the pages, but there is a wistful melancholy and a romantic sweetness hidden beneath the surface. Full of captivating contradictions and delightful hidden secrets, Ghetto Gypsy is a journey that will entice, and all to quickly capture your imagination." - Carla Christopher, 4th Poet Laureate of York, PA
