From Patrick Ashe, longtime writer and recently published novelist, comes a collection of poetry spanning 21 years. While often brooding and expressive, Ashe's poetry goes for society's jugular while yearning for its heart, leaving sardonic questions and sincere affections in its wake. Inspirations span intensely emotive poets like W.B. Yeats and Sylvia Plath as well as stygian lyricists like Leonard Cohen and Trent Reznor. "Hear the sound of the Truth / In the stuttering of forced feat / The feckless tries and holy cries / Of failure propped on honored seat."
