The third and final collection of James Domestic's superb, moving, humorous and insightful street-poetry.

"Essex doesn't just produce non-entities who act as thick as two short planks in a 'reality show' that gives the impression the whole county is a wasteland of tanning salons and false nail studios - It also produces people with integrity, compassion and guts who are prepared to write words and share a piece of their REAL life with you. Read these words - some might strike a chord with you. They did with me."

(Steve Ignorant, Crass, Conflict, Schwartzeneggar etc.)

"Words that bite, belch, and bleed in their brilliance"

(Mark Grist, multi-award-winning poet and star of Channel 4's 'Mr Drew's School for Boys')

"A unique collection of poetic ventures into the human condition, with humour, anger, and a canny use of language: inspired and inspiring!"

(Dick Lucas, Subhumans, Culture Shock etc.)

"James' poetry sharply focuses in on the raw ridiculous truth of the world that is right in front of us all."

(Scott Coe, spoken word artist & former Stamford Poet Laureate)

"Argh poetry! Tweed-garbed toffs waffling about moorhens? Nah! Funny and fierce words fighting in a sack!"

(The Shend, musician, actor, absurdist, and Cravat)

"Through his use of clever wordplay and satire, Domestic effortlessly dissects societal norms, political landscapes, and personal dilemmas."

(Djordje Miladinovic, Thoughts Words Action)

"This exercises the brain, weaponizes the mind. Language gives us a way to communicate. These words start fires in the soul. Burn it all down and start all over again"

(Jerry A. Lang, Poison Idea)

"Relentless"

(Attila the Stockbroker, social surrealist poet and songwriter)
