Montice Harmon
About this listen
Expressions of Poetry by Montice Harmon is a beautiful collection of semi-confessional poems that speak about the poet's trials and tribulations. The poems are a kind of motivation for depressed minds and discouraged people to rise above their problems and face the world with a positive attitude.
Most of Harmon's poems are prose poems. He takes prose poems to another level with this collection. The poems all deal with some aspect of the poet's personal struggles - his joys and sorrows - and they connect you with his spirit and inner mind.
Poetry need not be confessional all the time, but it can most often be the result of some soul-searching or some emotions that are embedded in the poet's mind.
Many poems are inspiring for the listener. They help the listener to come to terms with personal tragedies and rise above them.

Maya Angelou’s unforgettable collection of poetry lends its name to the documentary film about her life, And Still I Rise, as seen on PBS’s American Masters. “It is true poetry she is writing,” M. F.K . Fisher has observed, “not just rhythm, the beat, rhymes. I find it very moving and at times beautiful. It has an innate purity about it, unquenchable dignity.... It is astounding, flabbergasting, to recognize it, in all the words I read every day and night...it gives me heart, to hear so clearly the caged bird singing and to understand her notes.”

Yung Pueblo’s path to deep healing began only after years of drug abuse had taken a toll on his mind and body. Searching for a way forward, he found that by honestly examining and addressing the anxieties and fears that he had been running away from, he no longer felt like a stranger inside of his heart and mind. And once he dedicated himself to meditation and trusting his intuition, he started to finally feel mentally lighter, with more love emerging from within. This was not an easy journey, and it's one that he is still on, but it showed him that real healing is possible.

For decades Jason Wilson was losing the war within - the internal battle that many men wage daily but were never taught how to win. As a result, he could not combat his toxic thoughts and emotions. Instead, he was conquered by them and communicated without composure - hurting those he loved and himself. This went on until he renewed his mind by releasing years of past trauma. His life and relationships were transformed when he learned how to master his emotions and express them with self-control. In the process, Jason became a better husband, father, and leader.

Americans have built an empire on the idea of “race”, a falsehood that damages us all but falls most heavily on the bodies of Black women and men - bodies exploited through slavery and segregation and, today, threatened, locked up, and murdered out of all proportion. What is it like to inhabit a Black body and find a way to live within it? And how can we all honestly reckon with this fraught history and free ourselves from its burden? Between the World and Me is Ta-Nehisi Coates’ attempt to answer these questions in a letter to his adolescent son.

Born to survivalists in the mountains of Idaho, Tara Westover was seventeen the first time she set foot in a classroom. Her family was so isolated from mainstream society that there was no one to ensure the children received an education, and no one to intervene when one of Tara’s older brothers became violent. When another brother got himself into college, Tara decided to try a new kind of life. Her quest for knowledge transformed her, taking her over oceans and across continents, to Harvard and to Cambridge University.

Assata Shakur's trial and conviction for the murder of a white State Trooper in the spring of 1973 divided America. Her case quickly became emblematic of race relations and police brutality in the USA. While Assata's detractors continue to label her a ruthless killer, her defenders cite her as the victim of a systematic, racist campaign.

Just as in Baldwin’s “after times,” argues Eddie S. Glaude Jr., when white Americans met the civil rights movement’s call for truth and justice with blind rage and the murders of movement leaders, so in our moment were the Obama presidency and the birth of Black Lives Matter answered with the ascendance of Trump and the violent resurgence of white nationalism.

For David Goggins, childhood was a nightmare--poverty, prejudice, and physical abuse colored his days and haunted his nights. But through self-discipline, mental toughness, and hard work, Goggins transformed himself from a depressed, overweight young man with no future into a US Armed Forces icon and one of the world's top endurance athletes. The only man in history to complete elite training as a Navy SEAL, Army Ranger, and Air Force tactical air controller, he went on to set records in numerous endurance events.

Words. We use them all the time, every day, mostly without giving them much thought at all. We take for granted that they’re here at our disposal whenever we need them. But if you’ve ever wished you could communicate more effectively, words are the place to start. It’s incumbent upon you to choose the best words to accomplish your goals, because how you choose to communicate influences—well, everything! The power of communication shapes our professional goals, our relationships, and our lives—so the words we choose to use carry a great deal of power.

The ancient Toltecs believed that life, as we perceive it, is a dream. We each live in our own personal dream, and these come together to form the dream of the planet, or the world in which we live. Problems arise when our perception of the dream becomes clouded with negativity, drama, and judgment (of ourselves and others), because it's in these moments of suffering that we have forgotten that we are the architects of our own reality and we have the power to change our dream if we choose.

I have discovered a group of women who refuse to be exploited, are immune to manipulation, and who never settle in the name of love. These ladies know what they want and take what they want by beating men at their own game. Utilizing the secrets exposed in this book, these women gain power, money, and status. Men call them gold diggers, women call them hos, but they call themselves winners. This is the book that society doesn't want you to listen to….

Great Story..
Life is full of surprises, hopes and dreams. Mr. Harmon's gives us listeners words of expression that gives us courage and faith. I found this story of prose poetry to be more non-fiction then fiction because it hits so close to home when I realize the change our world needs.
The author touches on every life-changing experience it throws our way providing an every lasting impression that there is a chance we can unite, love and explore our souls for peace of mind to conquer our greatest fears. Some poets writes to rhyme, but Montice writes to inspire and motivate the world through poetry spoken word.
I learned a lot from this edition and would recommend it to my teenagers for encouragement and to any soul searching for inspiration. It truly inspired my family and gave us all a new outlook on life.

Righteously Legendary
Encouraged from the moment I started listening to this story. His visions are clear and speaks a million volumes of life. Harmon voice consoles listeners and guides them with knowledge and understanding of what we are and the control we have as a people to live in a world where change can come truth only if we believe.
His thoughts and opinions are deep religion folding into mordern day doctrines of truth and no room for lies. The thing I love dearly is that he doesn't deny his belief or faith in a higher power of love. Not of hate or being misunderstood. Judgment is our biggest problem and through this story I've learned no matter.. to never give up on love, life and believing we are important and deserve more then we've accepted.

Very inspiring for us right now as Black folk. Montice Harmon explains in detail how power the mind is when you believe. To never give up hoping for a better future when it seems it's no way. His speech reminds me of the great Martin Luther King Jr. Very powerful and I agree very much needed amongst black and brown people. This book has become my 2020 therapy.

Incredibly Addictive
The world needs poets like Montice Harmon. His life's experience along his dreams in love, society and the workd has proven there's still hope from our young black men. His ambitions are our guidance to peace of mind. Our modern day Martin Luther King Jr. I love printed books and received this one as a gift from my grandson in college. He insisted i try audio books and I gave it a try listening to Expressions of Poetry. An incredible story about a poetic soul searching for answers yet, giving life through his spoken words.
To say, I didn't think men like this exist anymore. His concerns are personal and touching. "Will You Marry Me?" Is such a beautiful poem with old school morals. When men respected woman and vice versa. Harmon pose a great purpose in today's generations with his mind set. Very power black man with wonderful morals and dignity. I've become extremely addictive to this book I listen to it daily. Even as I'm writing this review ;)

My brother in American sent me this book and told me to hear it and it was amazing. This black man expresses love in ways many men couldn't. I love his concerns about the world and how it effects our future. His voice has a power sound that will motivate anyone with life and tjose who disagree with what's real is just a hater. The words within this amazing story is powerful. I repeat qoutes out if this book daily hoping the universe protects all the people in America and around then world.
I love he holds back no feelings exploring his Expressions of Poetry! I'll be passing it on to family and friends.

MONTICE HARMON: THE VOICE OF POETRY!
Life Spoken Through the Eyes of Poet: I've never heard poetry spoken so beautifully. Mr. Harmon is definitely what the world needs today. Especially in our society where we as a people lack self-respect because ethic backgrounds. His point of view on life is possible with determination and faith. We as a nation can do a lot better and without unity there will never be peace and harmony.
His life stories in prose are inspirational and delivered with pure talent. I have yet to receive the energy I felt listening to this story and how it moved my soul and spirit to higher thinking and focus. It's therapy to the entire being.
I was filled with love knowing someone cares for the future if our race and prays for a brighter future for the sake of our youth. Montice Harmon words are so smoothing and relaxing it's empowering beyond compassion. I pray his words moves this generation in a better direction mentally, spiritually and emotionally because his VOICE needs to heard...

It is filled with so much encouraging topics that we need to talk more about regarding love, respect and dignity in all those areas of our lives.

I can say my days have been filled with peace since I've come across this book. Harmon's voice smooths away any stress or doubt. His trials have encouraged me beyond possibility to fight the pain within and begin a new and glorious life never second guessing my reason for living. He opens insights on life in every way possible and along the way I've learned to be a better person and most importantly, LOVE WHO I AM.
