This autobiographical poetry collection recounts tales from the periphery of society, illuminating, in the author's words, "a life misspent without repent." Fellow outcasts will recognize themselves in these diverse themes, including social status, love, friendship, and the many hardships that constitute the human condition. For readers who have lived a safe distance from the underbelly of society-street life, hustling, prison, homelessness, addiction, and poverty-these raw, candid, and powerful poems allow them to vicariously experience the life of the ostracized.
Poets Road- The Wurdz is intended as a companion guide to the author's three previous compact discs, including all the poems and their track art. Photographs enhance and anchor the poems here; many of the featured photos were taken during the poem's creation. With this book, readers can see, read, understand, and feel the words, poems, and lyrics as they stand on their own.
Written in a boisterous, lyrical style, and created from the author's lived experiences, Poets Road- The Wurdz travels the dark alleys most folks try to avoid, exploring the many facets of what it means to live-and sometimes barely survive-in modern society. It gives a voice to the downtrodden, those kicked around by people and circumstances, then left to flounder and figure it out on their own. Take a glimpse into the author's complex inner world, and ponder questions that perhaps remain without answers.

Xam Eitsirhc and Obzydian, a hairless hound dog, have a roof in Western Canada where the prairie meets the mountain, and a sea of grassland blows in the wind for as long as it grows-broken only by the yellow line of asphalt ribbon.
