Description for Swear
Paperback. Num Pages: 105 pages. BIC Classification: DCF. Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 229 x 152 x 5. Weight in Grams: 136.
In his debut collection of hard-hitting poems, Albuquerque Poet Laureate Hakim Bellamy addresses the issues important to our day—politics, work, and art. Bellamy moves from a freethinking attitude of deliverance to a provocative new space where the reader can reflect on the poet’s inquisition of the one percent, working-class life in urban and rural America, and the transcendent value of hip hop as one of our top exports and global contributions. Swear politicises the human condition in a manner that balances the abstract with the concrete.
