As an instructor at City College in Fort Lauderdale, Florida I always challenge my students to accept their greatness - to realize their full potential. I would often tell them to make their own place in history.

I encourage them to write books and invent something that will positively change the course of this world. I must admit that when I was presented with this information in this collection, I was instantly surprised. I remembered that I ask for this and had to read on to get the essence of what this extremely and unusual collection was all about. I know visualization is critical when providing a path for others to follow. The young writer of this collection has done very well.

I ask you to be prepared for an awfully different way to venture out of your dominate way of thinking. You will be challenged like never before. Warning! Defer judgment until you get to the third or fourth segment. It all comes together "later" in your mind.

The writer challenges the reader to think of things that are not printed on the pages. Ones mind begins to conclude things that are not written nor even implied.

Please be aware, you are creating this path based upon your lifetime awareness. The writer plays very effectively with your imagination in an unusual way.

I am delighted to have been asked about writing the forward to this very unusual but powerful imagery book - a kind of "history in the making" collection.

I challenge you to allow the young writer some "wiggle" room as you maneuver carefully through the pages. I ask that you not immediately punish him for an innocent deception! After all you are making "big" contributions to your own thoughts.

Every good and evil thought begins in the imagination and works its way out. As you read the first few pages, ask yourself, "What has my imagination created for me" about this writing?

You may be embarrassed to find out what your mind has produced is not true at all or is it? This only shows that we create our own reality, good or bad. I ask of the writer to keep on writing and challenging imaginations. Maybe one day we will create something in our minds that will dramatically change the course of this world, positively for all humankind.

I am more than convinced that this work will become a masterpiece of the American Literature. I challenge The Translators to take special care to preserve both the atmosphere of the stories and the poetic beauty with which the poet imbued his pages.
