    About this ebook

    I have come to deliver several messages through the form of poetry which is desperately attempting to rescue a crippling society. Are we so self-absorbed that we make the choice to become ignorant to the differences of others or do we use that to broaden our own views? Let an artist like myself help you out since this collection of words are for your sake.

His continued humbleness and strong work ethic will carry him into places that the average person can dream of reaching. A lot of mystery shrouds this genius author, but Khali is more than genius. As he makes a vow to write until he dies, the good work will keep coming your way.When you do happen to read Khali’s work, the themes and vocabulary he uses is extremely strong and provocative.

      If I call myself unlovable, I am, practically; if I say itenough times: unlovable. Then, like practical magic, I’m hollow as old garlic; I’m distance-skinned.I’m a long, mean package, a terror-dyke, a nag, a squinting, slut-spun hag—it’s easy, really

      For Ya’ Sake

      Today, I have delivered you a gift.

      It would be impolite if you did not

      open it up to see what I have given you.

      Do you know what I have bestowed into your hand?

      I have given you the power of the spoken word.

      The hymns, hums, and thy moans of poetry.

      Soothing that soul which craves for someone to whisper into it.

      Maybe my diction can carve a path in this jungle of

      thickness that continuously contaminates your heart

      which they somehow call resentment.

      Baggage you are trying to claim, but

      I already know you like to make your tears rain.

      No weatherman that I know of can predict this downpour of depression.

      To the Sky
