About the Book
Against a backdrop of humble pride, Judge Me Not is a literary flag that says," The Pen Is God's,The Ink Is Mine."It's as peaceful and enlightening as it is hip and real. It's plain English written in graffiti. It's universally urban. It's scholarly, but street. It's love, and war. It's spiritual, but far from religion. It's teacher and student. Judge Me Not is difficult to judge, it has the personality of a Staunch Gemini. It's fluctuating nature is a roller coaster ride of emotion and laughs. In a literary carnival Brother Dewayne offers poetic insight, wisdom, and hope in a recession clad society. At times he leads you to the mirror, forces you back to the dinner table for more "Food For Thought,"and then leaves you soft and sensual. This book is energetic, fun, and captivating.
