In 21st Century America, an obscenely wealthy minority continues to exploit and manipulate the working class, pursuing a course of ambiguous enslavement of our country's workers by sowing division and distrust - all while continuing to redirect wealth from those who have little into the hands of those already with much, steering the country toward a volatile and unknown (unknowable) future. As the waters of fact are deliberately muddied, inexhaustibly greedy politicians, science deniers, conspiracy theorists, extremists, and those who are simply malicious at heart bend reality and persistently chip away our social foundations, graces, and norms to accommodate their inadequacies and line their pockets. This new collection of poetic work from the author of Almost Home takes an unflinching look at life in a new America - one that is, to this day, manipulated by lies, greed, and unimpeded narcissism. Values that once were widely cherished have become cheap garments that are worn like camouflage for social self-defense. A reality that was once clear, although still vaguely recognizable, has become distorted, and a country full of honest, hard-working people must seek out like minded neighbors, band together, and fight for a country they fondly remember. For justice. For love.
