ABOUT
THE AUTHOR
I was born and raised in the beautiful island of Jamaica for 12 years. Then I lived in New York City for 3 years, until I somehow ended up back in Jamaica and lived there for 5 years. (By now you should have guessed my age) I am currently a college student in the US majoring in sociology and a minor in English. I love writing very much but since I returned to the US I have found it rather difficult to re-ignite that flame and passion that I had for writing. Hopefully as I post my work in Storymania, I can receive constructive criticism, or reviews of my work. I welcome negative reviews of my work because I feel this can help me to make my writing better. Things like, “this poem sucks!” or “I don’t understand anything you are talking about in this writing,” I welcome with open arms. I have traveled around, and have numerous experiences as it relates to the environment in which I’ve lived in. I admire diversity and culture, and hopefully someday, my admiration and interest in the various ways in which people live their lives can influence me more profoundly to reach out to people. I feel that writing is a way to start and gives me a chance to cut across borders and transcend across the continents, across ethnicity and race. Especially since I attend a university that is historically white, and 90% of the students are white middle-class Americans and I myself is of African descent. My passion for diversity increases the more I am in this kind of environment.

The Mystify One I Watched In The Heat Of The Night Jahri Ann
In the heat of the abandoned night
Silent as a reflection
He moved with a fearless fright.
Extremely invisible
Yet irresistible
He moves with flow.
Where are you going?
My curiosity stirring.
Why am I the only one that sees you?
But you think a do not?
Starring out my window
I see you in thin air
In the mysterious night
The gloomy, murky night.
You seem valiant
Charging to defeat your enemy
Who is your enemy?
My rarity sensation endless
I see the mighty sword.
Your weapon of defense
Is that all you have?
Racing through the colossal trees.
For some unexplainable reason
I feel like I am secure
That you are protecting me
Because I am unaccompanied
Protecting me from what?
You are topless
I see the bare muscles of attraction
Oh Extraordinary you
nude feet in the heat of the dark
But why?
