A new book of poetry by Teets, one I was honored to write an introduction to, and now I get to meet the final product! If you haven't found the transformative beat cynicism of his work, you can now.

Itinerant grittiness to poem after poem revealing speakers tormented by false theologies, swindling opportunistic politics, and violent despair.
And even then, a sometimes nuanced mythology and spirituality. It's beat poetry made anew.

Americana beat poetry for the 21st century, Teets's work is often raw, with a gritty nostalgia nonetheless for a lost era of disenchantment. Today, by contrast, we don't remember enough to be disenchanted.

Teets has a grisly view of the near-present, a hard view of the past, and somehow finds grit enough to endure. A Michigan poet, Teets offers verse allusiive and elusive, definitely to be read for tone as much as message.

Some gritty and ironic takes on American faith and lost cultures, this collection of poems by a friend of mine will be a true pleasure!
