Eddie Joe Beers - Outlaw Poet. Unfiltered Voice.
Before the series. Before the system.
This is where it started.
Look at Me When I'm Hitting You - Part I is a raw, first-strike poetry collection built from working-class pressure, creative survival, and the kind of clarity that doesn't ask permission.
These are short, direct pieces written for impact-when you're burned out, fed up, or trying to think straight in a world that keeps shifting the rules.
This isn't polished poetry.
It's functional.
This book is used:
- when anger needs direction, not suppression
- when burnout turns into clarity
- when creative blocks need force, not finesse
- when the noise gets loud and something real is needed
Inside:
- 80+ short-form poems rooted in lived experience
- working-class perspective without filter
- dark humor, confrontation, and stripped-down truth
No metaphors to hide behind.
No safe distance.
Some books are meant to be admired.
This one is meant to hit.
