Written from many cells across the country, Screwed Up: Penitentiary Poetry 2, offers up an intimate look into the diverse minds of provincial and federal prisoners who seek to express themselves through art - specifically poetry. Screwed Up delivers a glimpse into the inner struggles that so many face, from the self-sabotage of drug addiction and all its consequences to more fatal decision making that can destroy lives and tear families apart. This poetry - the guiding light amidst their darkest hour - showcases the positive and impactful transformation and growth of each author. Lay witness to a type of change that can only take place at one's lowest point, where one must reflect on every ounce of their being. Peer through this literary window, sit in the mental cell block, bask in the confinement and self-inflicted purgatory of these authors as they come to understand that their actions have ripple effects that affect so many members of their community. Feel the transformation of these authors through their poetry.
