about this book: The Embryo of my Manhood: Second Edition details the journey of a developing people as he describes various experiences. The book portrays several emotions ranging from excitement, love, anger, sex, and guilt that the reader can experience as they follow along with the poetry.

The title was created in high school, and the final product was put together in a three year process. The book is written to be read from start to finish to grasp the various emotions described throughout the journey, and will allow the reader to become consumed in the raw experience of the book. Artists such as Eminem, Tupac, DMX, and LL Cool J were all influences in creating the poetry. "Eminem is relentless with his rhymes; in older songs like "Stan" and newer pieces like "Survival," the rapper doesn't let artificial schemes determine the number of his rhymes. Amos is similarly (and admirably) persistent." - Kirkus Indie Reviews

• "With this invigorating torrent of words, the author should leave readers energized and inspired."
