Jamie Wilcox, aka Rage, had been released from prison after doing a three-year bid for armed robbery. He reunited with his childhood friend, Realeyes. Realeyes helped Jamie get back on his feet the only way he knew -- The ski mask way.
Jamie stacked his money until he had a nice little nest egg. He wanted to walk away from the game but Realeyes had another idea, "The infamous One More Lick".
Jamie had taken enough risks but Realeyes was the closest person he had for a brother. Jamie also didn't want to have no parts on being inside another cage. But that wasn't his only problem.
Jamie had become popular on the Spoken Words circuit. He had a gift with words. He also had a gift to be able to atract females. Jamie was caught in a web of love, lies and deceit.
Jamie was caught between the woman he loved, the woman he lusted for, the woman he needed, or the many people that needed him. The one thing that was absolutely certain was, he was running out of time.
Jamie was faced with multiple situtations but the wrong decision could change his life for the worse. All his questions will be answered and he will answer issues that he's faced with.
At the biggest Spoken Words Slam in the state, Jamie will learn the true identity of his alter ego R.A.G.E., 19 minutes and time will run out.
