HennaMan

With the spoken-word CD *All That and a Bag of Words* and the *Catch the Fire!!!* anthology already to his credit, poet and sociologist Derrick I.M. Gilbert (aka D-Knowledge) here drops HennaMan, his debut collection, which is divided into sections such as "Blues, Blushes, Brushes, and Bruises of Blunted Love" and "Cornucopia of Culturally Colored Commentary", all of which meditate on life, love and the many insidious forms of oppression in daily existence. Often autobiographical and always engaging, Gilbert's poetry rises to the challenge, as he writes of his St. Kitts ancestry, of being "Propelled to harvest humanity/In a venomous domain".
