The Fight, The Fury and the Ferocious Feelings. #786427

2023? Remember the promises? Recovery? Yeah, right. Darren Hobson's new poetry collection tears into the reality: the rich got richer, governments turned toxic, and the world coughed up one disaster after another. But this isn't just about what's out there; it's about the battle within. Hobson wrestles with the bottle, anxiety's teeth, and the soul-crushing belief that he's worth nothing. Loneliness bites like a frost bitten limb, society spits venom, and he's staring into his own personal void, wondering if there's a way back. Can a poet claw his way back when everything screams for him to stay down? This is raw, this is real, and this is about finding a voice when you're pretty sure you've lost it. It's a testament to the enduring human need for connection and meaning, even when both seem impossibly out of reach.
