The Blood of My Poetry: Legend's Tale

Eric Bonner was born March 28th 1980 in Brooklyn, New York. There he would like so many kids in the late eighties and early nineties would be involved in gang activity. The combination of losing his mother due to a stroke at 13 and the murder of his best friend at 15 pushed him to start writing poetry as a way to deal with the loss of the closest people in his life. He performed poetry slams throughout high school and never stopped writing even after graduating from college with a degree in Computer Technology. He still writes poetry for his poetry blog The truth's Poetry Booth. This book has been in the making for twenty years and is heavenly influenced by the thing he says saved his life. His love of Hip Hop music. He enjoys time vacations with his family. His wife Lateva, sons Christopher and Christian and daughter Aria. He also is a avid sports fan and video game enthusiast since first playing Colecovision. A system his parents bought for Christmas at the age of six years old. Eric is firm believer in a higher power and puts his faith in God because he says "If 2Pac believes in him, then I do too".
