Just For Free #786396

Before the later collections, there was JUST FOR FREE—a raw, unfiltered exploration of life, loss, and the art of writing. This book documents the poet’s first public venture, where the boundaries between the personal ("Better Day," "One Step Nearer") and the political began to blur. Experience an array of random, yet electric, ideas: from a car crash that serves as a morality tale, to blistering poems aimed squarely at the powerful. This is the origin point of a self-published poet who has since spent over a decade writing against the grain of polite poetry, setting the stage for a voice that would eventually become blunt, darkly comic, and unafraid to confront.
