In Invasive, poet Tyler Freitas delves into the haunting realities of drug addiction - the devastation it inflicts on individuals, families, and communities - and the unspoken truths that perpetuate this crisis across the United States. Through raw, unflinching verse, this collection explores the intersection of poverty, desperation, and broken systems that fuel the proliferation of drugs; revealing both the darkness and fleeting moments of light within a society grappling with its own demons.
From the streets of urban neighborhoods, to the forgotten corners of small towns, these poems navigate the complexities of survival, addiction, loss, and resistance - acknowledging those often silenced by stigma and fear. With poignant imagery and emotional depth, Invasive challenges readers to confront uncomfortable truths, while ultimately offering a glimmer of hope.
In this compelling collection, poetry becomes a tool for reckoning - a call to break the silence and spark conversation about the true cost of the drug epidemic in America.
