At times shocking, then abruptly, surprisingly tender, his poems constantly question accepted beliefs and attitudes, both society's and his own. Like the classic blues singers, Danny is able to use a limited form to express the limitless.” Danny Bland is the author of the novel In Case We Die (2013, Fantagraphics Books), as well as a longtime musician and tour manager.This is his first book of poetry, but please don't call it that.

All pre-orders of the book include an art print featuring a photo and haiku from the book, signed by Danny Bland and Greg Dulli. This one is included
