    About this ebook

    This book is a descriptive and passionate tale of my life through the eyes and thoughts of others. This book is the first of a series and I really wanted to embrace the sensative subjects that get swept under the rug too often. I hope to touch at least one person with this poetic story of a spoken word artist's travels.

    Paris “Chi” Butler

    This is a passionate poetic story of my life through the eyes and thoughts of others. I have been writing for years and have recently taken account to writing about the lives of others. I am dedicated to the art that is poetry and the beauty of spoken word. A resident of the Charolette area I was born in Chicago.

      MY BELOVED ANGEL, I am nearly mad about you, as much as one can be mad: I cannot bring together two ideas that you do not interpose yourself between them. I can no longer think of nothing but you. In spite of myself, my imagination carries me to you.
