O knihe

Poetry for the Dysfunctional is the first
part of the lifelong collection of poetry from the
self-described "King of Dysfunction." Adolph Utellus Hudson
was born to a single mother in the Midwest, the youngest of
six children. His mother died when he was three and thus
began his journey into a dysfunctional life. Raised by an
aunt who was very strict, Adolph spent his time learning in
school and church. At the age of five, Adolph became aware
of his special connection with God. He asked God for only
one thing, wisdom. God was faithful and he opened him up to
a world that many can't see. As a junior in high school, he
received a full engineering scholarship to a major
university. His success was short-lived and at nineteen,
Adolph started an illegal drug business. At twenty-one, he
fathered two children. Two years later, the mother of his
first-born passed away. For five years after that tragic
event, Adolph wandered the streets, homeless, until one day
he stumbled into the City Mission. There God spoke to him
again. At thirty, Adolph was licensed to preach the gospel.
His poetry reflects the emotion of the dysfunctional events
that make up his life.
