Name: We Were All Someone Else Yesterday
Writer: Omar Holmon
Genre: Poetry
Review: The cover is beautiful which makes this book attractive and eye catching for the readers. At first, I didn't understand the meaning of the cover, but when I did, I had tears in my eyes.

"Migration becomes second nature to me now
I move out of our apartment,
I move in with a friend,
I can move everything but
on"

The poet breaks our heart with his words. The poetries are good which makes us laugh when our eyes are full of tears. Most of the poetries in this book deals with the poets life, family, friends, love as well as discrimination and racism.
Some of my parts from the book are:
“Lets call a spade a spade, not a gardening tool”
Refers to calling something as it is
Speaking bluntly without “beating around the bush"

"history will say “donated”,
when they mean taken
history will say “cultivated”,
when they mean stolen
history will say “discovered"

"I know that peacocks
have a huge need for companionship,
alone they get heartbroken
I am alone now,
I doubt I am a peacock,
I mean,
I doubt that I am a heart broken"… (plus d'informations)
