He: A Collection of Original Poetry is a contemplative body of work that reflects on the lives, struggles, and enduring spirit of Black men. Moving through themes of ancestry, hardship, love, and remembrance, these poems bear witness to both the quiet strength and the unseen burdens carried across generations. Drawing from personal memory, Southern roots, and the broader landscape of the Black American experience, Terry A. O'Neal writes with tenderness and care, offering portraits that feel both intimate and familiar. The poems honor fathers, sons, brothers, and lovers while acknowledging the forces that have shaped their lives. Written in what Terry A. O'Neal calls Sepia Modernism, the collection brings the past into the present without dressing it up-just truth, as it is. At its heart, He is a tribute to resilience, to humanity, and to the enduring power of love.
