Spoken Word Poet, Author and Youtuber. My name is Mario Walker and I'm happy to call Poemist home. I started writing poetry at age 14 and since then I published serveal books on Amazon (2 print and 5 ebook), performed at open mics locally in the Sandhills reigon in North Carolina, and have my YouTube channel. I write poetry for the purpose of inspiration and self-reflection I want poetry to be a mirror of myself as I go through life while still encourage and be a light in a dark world.
