Release

by Jasmine Farrell

The Release poetry series consists of three stand-alone micro collections centered around You is the art of letting go in poetry book form. Full of powerful affirmations for the present moment, poet Jasmine Farrell teaches us that the only way we can actualize our dreams is to release what no longer serves those self-limiting beliefs, naysayers, and is a poetic catharsis of black life. With a passionate pen, she addresses oppression and well-meaning cliché’s that do more harm than good. With that same passion, she also proclaims worth, power and affirmations that we are not alone to her readers.
