I got Gnarly Thumbs a while back and I’ve been savoring it in small bites, one at a time.
I published a bunch of books of poetry this year...this is a book of broken sonnets I was proud of.

1. Break up corporate monopolies
2. Continue building union power
3. End Citizens United and get big money out of politics
