Verse from the Village

Admitting tough truths about ourselves is hard enough, but it’s even more challenging to share them with the world. Marquitta Lloyd, known onstage as Poetess P.R.Y.D.E. (Powerful, Resilient, Young, Determined, Encouraged) takes the stand and invites you, ladies and gentlemen of the jury, to witness her raw, humble testimony of heartache, evolution, and self-affirmation in P.R.Y.D.E. in Print.
