This is Alexia's first official published work of poems. Although she has notebooks full of poetry. Her favorite poets include: Langston Hughes, Jill Scott, Tupac, Maya Angelou, Khalil Gibran, Rumi, Nikki Giovanni, and Phyllis Wheatley.

This has helped shape Alexia along with her own life experiences. "This poetry is magic, enigmatic, the black goddess as school girl, wife and mother. This poetry is influenced by rap music/poetry, is experiential and protest poetry, often in Black meme, the voice of the Poet is just forming as she is only 25 years old. This Writer experiences this Poet as a young Gwendolyn Brooks. The themes include protest poetry against war, racism, hard times and poverty and includes love of her husband, her son and God. The Poet harkens to the New American School with work that plays with syntax and uses symbols. The truncated thoughts are original with flashes of brilliance and often with ryhmes, rhyming couplets and rhyme at the end of lines, the hallmark of rap poetry. Within the work are some Haiku and longer pieces and a series of poems under 20 lines that gel exquisitely, they are like mainline rap, that bang in the dance and roll in liked tied packages. A truthtelling, the rock and roll of relationship, home life, experiences with society all rolled into rap poetry." - Subterranean Blue Poetry
