20th anniversary edition. These poems were the original poems published in the first edition back in 2003, my “life goal” book. They were compiled from the ages of 11 to 25. I will never claim these poems are any good. Nothing was rewritten from my notes before publication. I wanted these thoughts to be raw, real, and authentic. So, I hope you enjoy these shitty poems (again).
