The Wise Man Say: Selected Poems

By J. A. Faulkerson

THE WISE MAN SAY is a poetry collection that explores the complexities of turning failures into successes, losses into victories. Throughout its pages, readers will partake of the wisdom of an experienced Social Worker who has dedicated his life to helping people help themselves.

J. A. Faulkerson admonishes his siblings in the struggle to keep devising, implementing and evaluating nonviolent approaches that inspire and motivate all of humanity to create what Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. called The Beloved Community. In this community, citizens will celebrate the Compassionate Neighbor while denouncing the Conquering Oppressor. They will also have a growing appreciation for doing LIFE (Living Independently Fearless and Empowered) together, working tirelessly to maintain a community that is more diverse, equitable and inclusive, and is built upon the pillars of love, fairness, justice and peace.
