Akeith Walters

For Akeith Walters, words are the art of his heart. Some of them can be found in numerous anthologies and literary journals (both in print and online) such as Linnets Wings, The Ocotillo Review, and most recently, Central Texas Writer’s Society and Beyond 2023.

At day’s end, he likes to sit with a mug of ice melting in sweet tea while he contemplates the difference between poetry and prose. The latter is more difficult to pen down, but sometimes when the room is still, the stories will hang around like cigarette smoke exhaled in frustration.
