I Pledge Allegiance to The Flag

By James Dennis Casey IV

"James Dennis Casey IV is a fearless Gonzo writer, never afraid of the journey. His new book I Pledge Allegiance To The Flag is above all else a book of connection, and often reconnection. Brother Casey seems hellbent on a genuine search for those things we all strive for in the short time we are here. Written in sparse language, the connection is immediately pure and never convoluted. I Pledge Allegiance To The Flag is a vehicle of intuition, as is the author himself, as he explains in the poem "Trust the Magick." Brother Casey writes on pure instinct and with a stripped emotional honesty that is most admirable. Whether it be the personal tragedy of Ghost Fall or the redemptive spirit of The Future is Now, Brother Casey has come through the fire stronger than ever: "Swatting at planes./Reaching for secrets./Gambling with dreams." There is an immediate Gonzo Magick here, an amazing vision from a fantastic writer I most highly recommend." --Ryan Quinn Flanagan (Author of Victory Slab ) "A soul's journey through the hardships of flesh and bone. Cold, wet, alone in his own mind. JDC IV sat and wrote poems 'till the coming dawn. In I Pledge Allegiance To The Flag the sky breaks, light begins to shine through the darkness of this life. His thoughts, his writing, his soul leave flesh and bone behind. "Making gumbo from my dreams", offering us all a taste.." --Michael E. Duckwal (Author of Ramblings of a Recovering Poet ) " I Pledge Allegiance To The Flag is a reconning, a full-out bar-brawl with the past over who gets the rights to the future. This book drags itself, white-knuckled, out of a burning building, only to pick up a hammer and begin building again." --C.S.Mathews (Author of Phrenology )
