This is a fictional story about four boys who grew up in the hood in Hyde Park, Illinois. It took me out of my everyday life and into a life I could easily be right there in the middle of it all. I laughed and cried and sat on the edge of my seat not knowing what was going to happen next. There are parts in this story that actually had me wheezing I was laughing so hard, and when it was crying time, it was weeping. Every emotion was touched in me as I entered the life and humor, loyalty and love, respect and honor each of these had. I found myself enjoying hanging out with them. I was on the streets holding my breath when they did dangerous things and had the tension build not knowing what was going to happen. This story took me to the streets, the jail, and the church. It was one of those books that change your life and make you appreciate life and love and friends. We all need them, we are created for friendship. When you find a good one, or a good three, you have treasures on earth that are priceless. Here is the poetic prologue that is inside the cover: We four grew we overcame We were lifted from our strife Our stress our continuous pain We four were friends we became brothers We found loyalty and strength Within the bond of each other We four stuck together we four took flight Spreading our wings through the sky With the sun as our guide We four eyes opened we became anew God bound us with wisdom To reach and share our knowledge to you We four stepped out the box We rose out of the shadow We four became as one God helped us four through our battles
