I thought being brown was a curse.
Turns out I was wrong.
It's not just a thought.
For 365+ days in a row, Alchemist Poetry hosted a poetry live on Instagram (@alchemistpoetry) to share his poetry with the world and learn from the thousands of poets who inspired him to create The Color of Trauma is Poetry. The book is designed to bring resolve to each reader as he/she resonates and colors through life's traumas.
"The Color of Trauma is Poetry" is a collection of poetry by poet: Alchemist Poetry. The book sheds light on the harsh reality of racism against immigrants / people of color in America, growing up in an abusive household, loss, and the search for a healthy love. While the book is a vulnerable and intimate look into his personal life, Alchemist Poetry still pulls our perspective back to observe the universal wisdoms we can learn.
