Trek Through Poetry

Sometimes the most honest conversations we ever have… are the ones we have with ourselves at 4AM . In this late-night reflection, I found myself sitting at my computer thinking about life, age, purpose, and the reality of moving forward after decades of service and experience. After over 30 years connected to the military , finishing my bachelor’s degree at 52 years old , and spending 13 years at...

Welcome back to my channel. It feels like it's been forever since I posted a long form video with all of the shorts I've been posting. Well I took a stab a going off the top of the head on something. This is my observation of men in the world today. Many are falling short of their responsibilities in many situations so I figured I would drop my thirty-three cents in the bucket.    Check...

Welcome back for another one from the crates. This one is very personal to me being that I was a victim of sexual abuse growing up. The motivation to writing and sharing this poem is to let the world know that situations like this do not define you and you do not have to suffer in silence. As a man, it may be unfathomable that we can be subject to this but it happens. The main thing is not bottlin...

Digging into the books with this untitled piece about divorce. That seems to be the recurring thought process in some of these pieces from my 12 books.

I am truly looking forward to this milestone and I am going to celebrate it with ya'll Check the merch l...

So last week I proudly shared that I would be doing poetry at my job's MLK Jr program on the 17th. Well I got a phone call that put that dream on ice. Apparently freedom of speech in the arts is a little judged by some people. Not overly mad about it, but I am disappointed. Take a listen.  Link to my books on Amazon:  https://www.amazon.com/stores/Achieng-M-Landy/author/B07YDQ5PQ3?ref=ap...

What is going on my good listeners? We are back with a little something different. I asked my Facebook and Instagram followers to share a significant thought and I would use it as a muse for a poem.

What is going on my good listeners? We are back with another episode and this time, I'm digging into one of my twelve notebooks. Yes we are getting into it finally. This piece has no title so we are just going to roll with the scrolls of prose and see what I have for you. I'm sure it will be an enjoyable piee of work. But that's just my opinion. Giggle giggle. Thanks for tuning in and definitely w...

Welcome back to another episode. First and foremost, Happy New Year! I hope you brought the year in healthy and happy. I wanted to take a change of pace and go through a poem series entitled "My Thoughts". I have about 13 of them but I will try to combine a few of them due to their short length. I'm even going to have to dig into my written notebooks. These pieces are a reflection of my overall th...

Welcome back to my poetry podcast! I'm glad you stopped by to chill with me. In this episode I will do what I was supposed to do in the first one, talk about my three books that I published. Links will be below. The featured poem in this episode is similarly titled, "Twist Of Fate". I wrote this piece back in 2001 during a semi dark time in my life. The context is more of a creative nature however...

In this episode I give you a brief introduction to myself and the origin of this podcast. I also drop a poetry piece that I wrote back in 2001 entitled "Tangible".
