DeJuan Cuffee – författare

In the age of simulated realities, poetry allows you to bring words to life. Have you ever pictured your thoughts lasting forever? Have you ever thought when I write I AM free? We became in agreement that our talent worked cohesively together and gave birth to a masterpiece. Pleasures: Love, Sex, and Poetic Stories is a collection of poems and poetic short stories by DeJuan Cuffee and Sharon Evans that explore themes of love, lust, relationships, passion, and longing. The authors adeptly showcase their talents with wordplay soaked in hip-hop inspired lyrical eroticism, as well as through their intergalactic expressions, and often straight forward language. There are beautiful illustrations provided throughout the book that complement several poems providing vivid color and expressionism. Delicacies include masterfully crafted flows that address the highs and lows of love through tales of high adventure or through clever, confessional back and forth banters. There are sultry sexual escapades, humorous one-liners, and emotional sagas for the readers (both couples and singles) to enjoy. The authors, while effortlessly balancing and blending their voices, in the process ended up forming their own poetic language, and we are all the better for it.
