Having been born and raised on the eastside of Cleveland, Ohio, going against all odds to embark upon a life of overcoming one obstacle after another, it is no surprise that his labor of love would come to fruition. It is through his "flawed" perspective that he writes his poetry and expresses points of view that often so many are apprehensive to share. The poems that W.A. writes vary over an array of topics, venturing through love, life, and faith. Each piece shares common thought by way of creative wordplay and witty outtakes. Poems such as “Scared to Succeed”, that express the overlooked fear of success, and “I’m Sorry”, serving up an apology for past love mishaps, break open the hard coating of standard male bravado, exposing the reality that many people face but are unwilling to make known to others. It is with great courage and a candid voice that W.A. Gordon breaks new ground, with a style that is sure to draw in readers of all sorts with his fresh approach, opening closed ears and eyes with an artistic technique that can be compared to few if any at all. His work intertwines the need to be inspired and the fight for self-improvement. Enjoy the work of this writer who has opened his soul for his readers to partake in and even empathize with. His concept may not be revolutionary, but the manner in which he presents it will assuredly whet the appetites of readers of an array of genres.visualizza meno
