While I enjoyed hearing the emotion in Leake's voice in the audiobook - the pacing & emphasis were incredible - I also feel like I would enjoy the written, physical copy of the book even more than the audiobook, just so I could sit with the words & reflect on them in a way that's not possible with audio. Very well composed on a variety of topics. A few poems mentioned that God had given him this talent with words, and I couldn't say it better myself. I've never watched America's Got Talent, so I went into this book unaware of Brandon Leake's accolades or criticisms, but I'm now a huge fan of his. And "Mutuality" spoke deeply to my tension with many so-called Christian leaders right now. The changing dynamics of schools in "The Secret Life of Teachers" made my heart ache. My mind is still ruminating on "Vice Versa" and its line about comparison vs. Unraveling is some of the most moving poetry I've read (listened to) in a while. My thanks to NetGalley, the publisher, and Brandon Leake for an advanced audio copy of this poetry in exchange for my honest opinion. I thought it was amazing and unapparelled to anything I have ever seen expressed before in poetry. Truly, Leake is gifted with word expression, and although I found many of his poems beautiful, full of deep heart-felt spontaneous sentiment, the message(s) of the poet, will speaks (or not) to each individual's heart. Many of the very last lines of a poem, deliver a "wow moment". Leake's poetry is dramatic and intense, yet delivered with smooth elegance.
In Unraveling: Poems, his poetry themes include religion, Christ, being black, prejudice, love of family, friends (or rather lack of true friends), injustice. Brandon Leake, author of "Unraveling: Poems", no doubt is gifted in turning his deep, heartfelt, expressive thoughts, into poignant vocabulary dripping with emotion, and is most especially noticed and appreciated as he narrates his own poems in the audiobook.
