Overview

Black Sparkles: One Black Artist. Three Lines. No Rules. is a contemporary haiku poetry collection that invites readers to escape into the rhythm of each 5/7/5 syllabic turn. Haynie-Mitchell reflects on the nuances of her everyday life through the poetic voice she discovered while sheltering in place during the COVID-19 pandemic. Empowered to articulate the world around her, haiku became her pathway to creativity, self-worth, and artistic identity. Readers can open to any page and step into Haynie-Mitchell's world-one she captures with irreverence, wit, and grace. As a rare standalone haiku book by a Black woman author, this debut expands the boundaries of the form and places Haynie-Mitchell within an esteemed community of published African American poets. Born in the 1940s, Haynie-Mitchell brings decades of lived experience to this seminal work.
