Empathy: A Book of Poetry

By Arthur Debose

Arthur Debose was born and raised in the city of Newark, New Jersey to a Black mother and half-White Father. Arthur was a quiet and shy child due to his speech impediment and constant stuttering. Being raised in a blended family, Arthur was exposed to a vast array of music and expressionism. As he reached the tender age of 13 he was exposed to the phenomenal writings of the famous Tammy Smith. Star struck and impressed, he began to compose countless poems and songs for open mic nights and special occasions. This gave him an opportunity to demonstrate his versatility and express himself frequently. This is the first volume of some of those poems and songs. Hope you enjoy!
