In ‘Poems For a World Gone to Sh*t’ you will find inspiration to guide you on a journey from feeling ‘what the f**k’ and that first instinct to just get away from it all, to getting some peace and perspective before feeling empowered to do something about it – and finally realising that life can still be pretty damn beautiful. Reflective, funny, political, inspiring, insightful, dark and sometimes light, these poems are about remembering to keep looking up at the stars, whatever life throws at you.
