At an early age Catherine was called on to do dramatic readings in school. Therefore, she developed over the years her gift to recite poetry. However, she first started to seriously write poetry during the time of her oldest son's wedding.
Catherine's heritage and roots in the south resonate from her poetry. As a strong Christian woman and Bible scholar she sees God in her poetry. Her work reveals an in-depth approach toward people and their lives through poetry. The narration of her poems are superb and one of her greatest assets as a poet.

The rejection and dispute with this research began in 1982 when Patton became a doctoral candidate. The rejection of the research further revealed to Patton his role to critique society. His experiences in the Atlanta University Political Science Department (now known as Clark) also convinced Patton to become an unyielding independent thinker. This experience further revealed to Patton that there is very little evidence of academic freedoms in many colleges and universities. Academic freedoms are denied independent thinkers and often because of race, sex and religion.Patton's doctoral research is now entitled The Black Conspiracy: TheRise and Fall of a Commission Form of Government. Patton argues that many aspects of racism would not exist in the United States if not for the conspiracy of many Blacks in the leadership ranks.
