The world has a way of getting into you; these poems document the process of prying it out. Whether that be from an ash tree's trunk or a rabbit's warren, or behind an abandoned shipping container on the way to work, or in a dusty noiseshow basement, Good Listeners leads you through the afterlife of trauma and disability. You will meet many strangers to guide youinto a world where you may suddenly find yourself coping.
