LIFT OFF – Press & Marketing release

Publication date: March 19, 2024

A volume of fresh poetry by a new writer sure to shake up the literary scene.

Not your average, run-of-the mill, ivory tower, establishment-approved, soulless corporate dreck. No, this is the real deal, the actual stuff, the way it was always supposed to be. Poems from a real soul on real streets. In fact, these are more songs than they are poems, composed aloud and sung hundreds of times until they were refined to perfection, at which point they were transposed onto paper. This style of vocal composition imbued each piece with a vibrancy, an urgency, an aliveness that feels tangible and thankfully, warmly contagious.

Clearly in league with the great masters of verse, Felonious Punk delivers a wealth of emotions and the delight of discovery in this new and important work. These poems connect to each reader as an individual, deeper than conversation, right now, in our current situation with all its facets, to give us a much needed laugh, a thoughtful pause, a hug, a high five, a kick in the pants, a spirited dance, and a kiss on the cheek. Vitamins you read.

Unapologetically honest, refreshingly visionary, rebelliously dignified, and defiantly essential for these turbulent times, this book was written for you and me.

Offered in both a hard-back and a soft-back edition, each edition comes with a unique and spirited mock-up of the same photograph, each portraying a different spirit of the poems contained within.

Written in the USA, designed in the Netherlands, printed in China, published and distributed in the USA.
