"I'm up to my ears in unwritten words" (J. D. Salinger, author). The poet is an important person in the society. The point of view, how we see the world as artists, is so unique, and our words, as a result, are extraordinary. The unwritten words, the words women haven't been able to say, and the words black people weren't permitted to read or write are expressed here. Life and love, the good and the bad can be a challenge for us all, but the overcoming of adversity makes us stronger and puts the pen to author our life stories in our hands.
