Summary:
"Indecency is boldly and carefully executed and perfectly ragged. In these poems, Justin Phillip Reed experiments with language to explore inequity and injustice and to critique and lament the culture of
white
supremacy
and the dominant social order. Political and personal, tender, daring, and insightful--the author unpacks his intimacies, weaponizing
poetry
to take on masculinity, sexuality, exploitation, and the prison industrial complex and unmask all the failures of the structures into which society sorts us."--Amazon.com.
