Squirrels, Turtles, Tyrannical Bastards & Fascist Pigs (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781797684802)

These 300 poems were written to celebrate National Poetry Month 2018 and explore the relationship between artist and audience. All of the illustrations and the cover art were created by the poet. The titular references to "fascist pigs" represents the poet and "tyrannical bastards" is the audience. The which of the two wins the encounter is entirely up to you. While one might suppose this collection is political in nature, it is no so in the way many might expect. The politics held herein is usually oblique and often dealt with in metaphors and wordplay. This is not a book of poems to comfort and reinforce beliefs, instead it is intended to challenge the reader to ask more questions and accept that two opposed truths can both be true. Above all, it's meant to be fun.
