Abstract
This collection of poetry and short stories centers on the theme of "other" within the frame of family, homelessness, and loss. Constructed from my struggle for identity, bound up in these themes are a personal altar built on a foundation of love, hate, hurt, dreams, joy, and difference. Born into a racial society, America's Deep South, at a time when having a mulatto mother and black father mattered - a lot. It is the point-of-view of one who has traveled the world and understands that Other is a discourse of unequal power. Sympathetic to those with difference - especially the downtrodden, this collection takes the reader to the very heart of how this trifecta manifests itself in the voice of one "other."
