Book of Truths: Volume 2 (PB) (2026)

When a man finally tells his whole truth, a book emerges.

In Book of Truths, Volume 2, award-winning spoken word artist Brandon "Amayzn" Nelson rips off the mask and invites readers into the places most men are taught to hide. Through bold, intimate poetry, he explores Black manhood without apology, confronting trauma, depression, injustice, faith, fatherhood, love, lust, grief, healing, and the cost of using one's voice.

These poems travel from poetry slams and crowded stages to a courtroom where words suddenly fail; from honest conversations with God to hard-earned lessons for a boy rushing toward manhood. One moment, Nelson fights to hold his tongue. The next, he uses that same tongue to seduce, testify, challenge, and heal.

Honest, sensual, spiritual, humorous, and unflinching, this collection refuses to separate the sacred from the scarred. Nelson does not pretend healing erases what happened. Instead, he reveals how truth can take root in broken places, how joy can survive loss, and how a man can reclaim every piece of himself without apology.

Book of Truths, Volume 2 is more than poetry. It is testimony, confrontation, confession, and proof that wholeness begins when nothing is left hidden.
