The Winter's Cactus: An Autobiographical Collection of Poetry

Ever seen a cactus in the winter? The Winter's Cactus is an autobiographical collection of poetry that takes readers into the depths of their innermost being. The Winter's Cactus survives the storm despite being trapped in a blizzard of existential crisis, survivor's guilt, depression, love, and violence. Transform your pain into passion and your struggle into success by defining your storm and conquering it. Empower your mind to remind you of who you are and harness the power of your storm. Greatness will not be seen from you until you make it apparent. That is why, at all costs, you must survive the winter
