Black Bubblegum
Black Bubblegum is deep subject matter crafted into pleasant form. It is the collaboration of daydreams, hip hop, sermons, diplomacy, caffeine, prayer, and the love of women. Lewis pulls out all stops to artistically deliver courting, sexuality, overcoming apathy, entrepreneurship, and other topics in palatable fashion. The bold spoken word and potent poetry of a 1980's kid, brought to the world for the purpose of giving it something to chew on.

a story is only as great as its conflict
When you read Black Bubblegum, a collection of poetry from my favorite contemporary poet, Lewis P. Bryon, I urge you to read it aloud, as I did. Get your senses involved.
I've said before that Bryon's poetry reads me. Honestly, I wish I could type out all of the lines that hit me the hardest, but as that would take up entirely too much space, I'll refrain.
As is a good practice whenever reading lyrical literature, let the words hit you where they hit you. Take this, chew on it, and again, by all means, read it aloud. Who knows? It might make a spoken word artist out of you.
