Cainon Leeds is a poet, a gentleman, and a scholar, of which there are not many left. His poetry has been described as thoughtful, thought-provoking, and academic, but in an engaging way rather than a stuffy way. His work often explores history, philosophy, psychology, and Christianity. He placed 2nd in the Hackney Literary Awards' national poetry contest and his work has been featured in several literary magazines, journals, and reviews. He is currently pursuing a masters degree in the humanities, which he intends to put toward teaching at a local community college someday.
