Us Hard Few

By Eddie Black

A future classic in the Eddie Black poetry canon, Us Hard Few is a brutal, yet beautiful, narration of heartbreaks, fistfights, deep-pitted anguish, and the power of holding onto your dreams no matter how far away they seem to be running.

A book that captures the rambling spirit of the Ozark Gothic writer, Eddie Black, at his most bold and vulnerable. The larger-than-life individual has a way of living hard and wildly, firing from the hip at touchy and taboo subjects, as well as expertly crafting the odd ways of the heart into direct lines that almost anyone can relate to. Some poems are shocking in subject matter, some will shock you that you are laughing at something that seems impossible to laugh at. Eddie Black is a man of deep flaws and deeper convictions. These are tales and confessions of a man traveling a world filled with dangers and love.

"it occurred to me
that the only place
any sort of love could
exist and maybe even last
was under the mend
and in the broken hearts
of us hard few"
