Piece De Way Home is an experience reported in verse of growing up, living in, leaving, and returning to the South. Dudley Randall, the poet's first publisher, and early publisher of the new Black poetry in the 60s, described this poetry as ?edestrian?and yes it strolls at a leisurely pace, but it also looks deep with insight into the experience of growing up Black and female in the rural south mid-century, and of migrating to and from the urban experience of Detroit and the North during the height of the new cultural-awareness-years of the 60s and 70s. The poet's sojourn would be incomplete without the finishing influence and report of the return to and route back to the ?oots?of the rural south, in the 80s and 90s, from whence the experiential trek back home began. Piece De Way Home is poetry which accomplishes its goal of ?xamined and insightful memory?
