"Lust. Life. Love" is a collection of poems written by Marquis D. Bynum. From relationships and break-ups, to lustful temptations, religious confusions and stories of inner city strife, the reader will be enveloped into a poetic narrative of honesty, truth, sadness, motivation, hope, laughter, and will gain reflective insight into the relationships that exist within our own lives as well as those beyond it. It is a collection of wins and of losses. A book of triumphs and failures. "Lust. Life. Love." is everyone's story. Foreword by Greg Stowers Cover Art by Karen Tucker

Maktub: It Is Written is the follow-up to "Lust, Life, Love," and is another collection of poetry by author, Marquis D. Bynum. Holding to his previously consistent themes of love, relationships, and the often unmentionable aspects of daily life and struggle, Maktub: It Is Written captures a deep expression of raw and very real emotions through a very genuine interpersonal and interconnected voice. Central to its motif is the idea that Maktub is an anthology for life; individual stories of collective struggle and success and ultimately the obtainment of one's dreams.
