T.Obatala believes that this latest volume of poetry Stained With Light, delivers no complaint or whining in its tone. It is a brilliantmediation, a walk through a world that always has Death as a companion that spurs you to live each breath as if it will be your last.The author believes that his own personal life has been one of revolt against a life dominated by a tepid landscape of politicalcorrectness, and sheer numbling and blinding banality. None withstanding, he has experienced working with some great teachers/mentors, i.e. Ann Lauterbach and the late William Matthews. Stained With Light is the final Songs of Experiences that demands a toll into a sort of dangerous emotional focus that promises to leave the reader jarred.T.Obatala was raised in the mean streets of Jersey City, New Jersey as a survivor of abuse and ignorance. He considers his writings as songs of ugliness and maps to different territories of distress.
