Author Janetha S. Pierpoint believes the populace will not wait to identify with what is true and reject what is not. The greater part of humanity is rising from a deep sleep, determined to return to their roots.
In Timeless Voices-Before I Fall Asleep, she expands on this idea, writes of her personal experiences, and shares her observations of her daily interactions and of people just being who they are. Each of her poems and essays tells a story with numerous takeaways. Each day, she asks, "Who are we as a people? Have we forgotten to reveal history? If history remains hidden, should we not ask why?" Pierpoint seeks to pinpoint a time period marked by greatness-our ancestors building impressive structures; creating languages, customs, and traditions; writing; making art; and building architectural marvels. She feels blessed to know that the truth that has been hidden will reveal itself.
This collection of poems and essays offers observations on circumstances typically distorted by gossip, ignorance, hidden truth, or secrets intertwined with the lost lives of others.
