Laundromats & Lounges (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781484182116)

Born in Brooklyn, New York of Bajan descent, Roger Smith struggled through his teens and twenties with considering himself as a poet. With thoughts of the cliché that poetry "doesn't put food on the table", he switched majors and directions continuously during his early years as an undergraduate, until finally declaring himself an English major at Molloy College where he will graduate with a BA in English in 2014. The 34 year old poet who has 3 daughters and has been married for 11 years, scribes with an intense personal voice and illustrates poetry that generates instant images by his readers. His poetry has been published in the Molloy College Literary Magazine, and he has performed at various venues in New York City and plans on continuing to share his gift with the world through being what God has made him, a poet.
