AmBush
of America
This
timely collection of poems chronicles the controversial
and historical events of George W. Bush's reign
in post-September 11th America. While offering pointed
insights into the present state of American values
and ideals, each poem issues a challenge to the
reader not merely to understand issues facing the
evolution of our consciousness - as individuals
and as a nation - but to examine our thoughts and
beliefs, as well as our words and deeds. As all
singularly radical and provocative poetry should, AmBush of America dares Americans to consciously
determine the possibilities and hope for our justice,
freedom and democracy. |
