So, take this journey through the author’s mind and emotions, and discover the full spectrum of the pain and pleasure he feels and transmits. Gain an understanding of his transformation, not only through the clever verses and rhymes, but also through the raw and vivid honesty of the feeling that comes from his particular style and diction.
