'Inconsiderate Bastard'


Book Description

A young man witnesses from an early age that the degradation of women is the norm and develops into an 'Inconsiderate Bastard' who cares only about his desires. After reflecting upon his exploits he tries to reform his behavior and his dirty ways...but is he capable? "I am one of society's many men who are responsible for causing mass destruction to women's ability to care for their family the right way or blissfully fall in-love. Lucky for us, some women can overcome their baggage and become loving and caring even though they were ill-treated, raped, pillaged of their sanity, and left for years. It doesn't matter what country you are from and it certainly doesn't matter where you live. It seems like the ability for most men to love and treat women like they are worth more than a two dollar hooker waiting for another John has evaporated from most of today's modern man's mind."




Inconsiderate Bastard


Book Description

I have always used poetry to express myself, and this time is no different. I believe that poetry is a fantastic way to send and receive messages, create images, and, importantly, a way to challenge one’s assumptions. I have compiled a set of poems that are about the current social-political events. My hope is that these works, whether individually or collectively, will provoke and evoke an awakening of consciousness at best or, at a minimum, provide the basis for a lucid thorough examination of the social-political decisions that we all make together as a country and a society. If nothing else, I hope these poems will inspire you to rethink how you see our world.
