The opioid epidemic has hit a small Ohio town hard. While living with his grandparents, a young boy navigates abuse and neglect through a latchkey childhood. Through the use of free verse and sonnets, the boy's coming of age story is explored-fantasical creatures like pixies and the Grassman are imagined by the boy while the drama of an addicted grandfather and bedridden grandmother plays in the background. As the boy deals with constant anger from his grandfather, he discovers escapism and freedom in a rural, Rust Belt landscape, using the woods as a shield from an abusive home.
