    About this ebook

    Truly this is the most poetic time of the 2010s so far. Our nation-states are straining under the hammer blows delivered unto them by an unchecked, unqualified, boorish elite led by America's Freudian Id made flesh, Donald J. Trump. These poems explore the moment of release through the lens of Article 50.
