Poems from a Bronx Room

About the Book

This collection of poetry is for the most part, an escape from teenage angst.

I am a child of the failed Regan-nomics that the 80's produced. The failure of these policies carried over into the bitterness of a household that grew larger and wider, and quickly into the 90's. It was in the nineties that the bitterness of alienation, financial disappointment, and finding the will to survive became a focal point for a young man in the Bronx.

These poems reflect the times in a Bronx room where one can only hope that all can change.

That the bitterness that somehow engulfs you, can also save you. Poems from a Bronx room is an escape, the task of watching a father suffer in a quiet depression, lost love, my anger that was so common in the nineties with the youth of America.

These poems remember an angry decade.

Yes hope.

It was all a young man who looked out the window ever had.

This book I dedicate to the isolated and alienated of the nineties.

For the generation in between.

For those who still run from the nineties.

This is for you.
