Another preview from Emanuel's garden?

Okay.
Sure.
Why not?

Our family tree has seen better days, and it breaks my heart. I long for the moments when we were all together, laughing and loving without the clouds of misery. It's a shame that those day's are but a distant memory. 🌼✨

"TAPPED, yet unrooted"

Synopsis

Can toxic family secrets ever be forgiven or forgotten? J.E. Rome's raw, visceral poetry is a personal and chronological journey through the hell of growing up in a dysfunctional family where when bad things happen, there's no one to blame but yourself. Rome faces the skeletons in the closet head on: from childhood trauma, abuse, and parental neglect to the soul-ravaging effects of poverty and addiction.

Graphic and hard-hitting, this unforgettable memoir, structured as a collection of poems, takes you through the darkest places of the human heart to the light of hope and truth.

Reviews

"Tapped, Yet Unrooted is captivating from cover to cover. Rome poured his heart and soul into this book and it shows. He shares the horrific details of abuse and neglect, and the life he endured from infant to adult; which is unfathomable. It was a simple, yet horrifying read. I couldn't put it down. Rome has somehow overcome adversity with his familial adversaries and survived a childhood that nightmares are made of."

Tara Erickson, Speech Language Pathologist Assistant

"The deepest, powerfully raw, poetry you'll ever read! Poetically witty! These are the darkest and most unfiltered poems ever. When you pick up the book you'll quickly realize that you are in the front seat of the poet's traumatized life. Easy to understand, heartbreaking read, hard to put down."

Emmanuel Forty, Technical Recruiter

"Rome does for poetry what Eminem does for rap. An unbelievable magical array of perfection in words, through raw, rough, beautiful yet brutal reality that tells a story most aren't brave enough to share. A million accolades and all the thumbs up still would barely scratch the surface of what this man brings to the world through his gift of poetry. To say I love him, is an understatement. READ THIS BOOK!"

THIS is how you show support‼🙏💕 For anyone that doesn't know, I call this man @devin.halliday my "Dr Dre".. Or, as I affectionately refer to him, as "Doc". This is the man that listened to my story, & brought it to HIS publisher, because he believed in "Tapped".. More importantly, he believed in ME.

And that's something that I'll never forget. Doc, I can't thank you enough for putting your faith into a guy you've never even met, without EVER asking for ANYTHING in return. People like you are only heard about.. I'd like to introduce you to the world.. And I promise you, I'll continue doing so. "Thank you, Doc❗"

God you don't need me but somehow you want me. Oh how you love me, somehow that frees me to open my hands up and give you control.
