Book Overview

Spoken Word Summaries for Wounded Warriors

Here’s your check! A lyrical mirror held up to power, pain, and perseverance. In this bold anthology, Carolyn Plummer Ayana delivers unflinching spoken word that gives voice to the wounded, the waiting, and the wide-awake. Her powerful rhythms and unapologetic truths explore the unchecked political forces and systemic failures that continue to erode justice, equity, and human dignity in today’s America.

These are not just poems—they are survival tools. Coping rhymes for those battling the weight of delayed promises and dismantled protections. They speak directly to the spirit of warriors—those bruised by bureaucracy, abandoned by leadership, or silenced by oppression.

Blending biting critique with spiritual uplift, Ayana crafts each piece with the urgency of now, the wisdom of lived experience, and the fire of artistic revolution. Where’s My Check? is a call to consciousness—and a check on a system long overdue for accountability.
