Onney

“I am intellectually impressed by your diversity and ability to impregnate my psyche. With thoughts that are healthy for my spirit. Dissipating any doubt, Causing me to surrender my love without hesitation, bringing fourth revelations, Of circumstantial confusion, Now my mental is having multitudes of illusions” Onney from her book Infinite Silhouettes.



Onney, The Poetic Diva, addresses a wide range of life’s issues that concern us all. She is an insightful hip - hop poetess who uses her incendiary vocal skills to take us into the erotica of love and the morass of social and political issues that concern us all. Her observations are laced with a wisdom beyond her years and sautéed in humor that holds the listener or the reader rapt.

What Poetry Means to Onney. "Poetry and song defines the intellectual capacity of ones being. It is the prophecy of one's thoughts, dreams, hopes and aspirations. Poetry can encompass many things, such as being an inspiration for freedom of speech through the art of writing and spoken-word. Poetry involves the creation of a broader imagination while targeting the reality of real life circumstances. Poetry is the art of music and spoken word".Onney
