Epic Proportions

Just because 2 Enlighten The G.O.D.Z. has been finished for the last nine years doesn't mean that it can't do with a bit of editing. I have started the first of the three acts. I forgot how intense the story gets. Where Maa Kheru in The Ronin Poetz may be born into an intense world, it does seem as if the dust has settled. And he's surrounded by a loving family and community.

The main character of 2EtG, not so much. He's born into an experiment that, although it mirrors the Marvel Character Wolverine's Weapon X Program mixed with the real life Tuskegee Experiments, Jim Crow Experiment, Willie Lynch Experiment, and commentary on Western academia and the prison systems (and the experiments running loose in there).

There are very few grammatical errors, or misspelled words. I'm also working with the poetry's flow, especially the fast paced battle sequences -- where I have left off in the editing, the first major fight. It's suspenseful, as most of the story can be, bordering on scary, a li'l spooky like the 3rd teaser for the stories Enlightenment Campaign.

The story does say 'EPIC' (hate the fact that this word is used so much in pop culture). It's far more vast than The Ronin Poetz. But that's not to knock the first piece. But 2 Enlighten The G.O.D.Z. is very expansive, and to no accounts (and this must be said) a sequel in any way shape or form. 2 Enlighten the G.O.D.Z. is its own story, and really opens the mind to an epic mythology, where as The Ronin Poetz is a more contained story, while still invoking a wonderful mythos.

Early next year I will be hopping around spots to get back up on the mic to promote 2 Enlighten The G.O.D.Z. Now that's spooky. I haven't performed poetry in a minute. I've already picked the pieces I will be using for promotion.
