The Truth About Me is a synthesis of prose and poetry that bring the reader along on a voyage of a young man searching for where he is in the world. The work illustrates the agonizing search that men undergo to understand the loves that make men who, and what, they are. It describes the conflicts with nature that help men to understand the world and the battles within men that color their actions. Men are loathe to risk heart, soul, and body by opening themselves up and canvassing the world around them with the art and poetry that flow through them. The Truth About Me makes known the disjointed, difficult to understand, and vague thinking that lead men through their journeys. Its gallant mission is to paint for women what men cannot; the wondrous art that exist in men’s thoughts. Each chapter of prose and each page of poetry will fill the reader with anguish and empathy. The hope is that as our society struggles to redefine the role of man within it, The Truth About Me will add to the body of understanding driving the evolution of men in our culture.
