The Mad Ramblings of a Joker is like thick, dark cocoa, nearly so stout your spoon can stand within, splashed with cinnamon and a few bobbing marshmallows of sweetness to savor in the darkness. His poetry could change your heart with one empathetic taste. - JT Morse, Award-winning poet, memoirist, storyteller, author of "Living in the Spaces Between"
A look into the soul of a soldier; a glimpse into what it looks like to live on the other side of survival; a collection of relatability through a lens I could never imagine for myself. - Xach Blunt, poet, spoken word artist, finalist in Texas Grand Slam Poetry Festival and Individual World Poetry Slam
The battle with self is a war on-going and explored in Brandon Dillon's collection of poems. Under layers of ash and whiskey, Dillon's voice is honest and resonates with others who have experienced trauma, loss or PTSD. As a Marine, father, and imperfect human, Dillon provides an openness about PTSD that could help others understand their grief too. - Andreana Binder, MFA, Faculty, Writespace
