Burn Thursday: "Poetry, Playlists, and Prayers for Healing"

Burn Thursday is a raw, and hauntingly painful accounting of author, Syreeta Brown’s, grieving of past uncouplings. This collection allows the reader to witness pain, process, and perseverance through poetry, playlists, and prayers. Instead of feeling sorry, you feel empowered by the author’s ability to share her evolution through self-discovery and self-accountability. This eclectic collection explores addiction, sex, love, rape, mental disorders, tragedy, loss, and helplessness. Syreeta is courageous and bold, leaving her naked soul for you to see.This selection of poetry is not for the faint at heart. Burn’s poetry includes tender confessions that are sexually explicit, vulnerably sweet, and sometimes painful to read. Prepare yourself to be shocked, pissed off, and then healed. You will feel emotionally drained as you progress through the five chapters that are divided as: Simmer, 1st degree, 2nd degree, and 3rd degree burns, but then she manages to heal you with Salve, a chapter of prayers and healing. Syreeta is unapologetic and transparent in her penned expression of love, intimacy, and betrayal. You will be touched!
