Touch the Earth: Poems on The Way by Drew Jackson

5.0


here to once again rave about the genius that is @d.jacksonpoetics. ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿผ this new collection of poetry continues in putting words to the Gospels in a way unlike any iโ€™ve ever heard or read โ€” the back flap described it as protest poetry meets Bible commentary. iโ€™d just add that itโ€™s also masterful and lyrical and blazingly sharp, surprising me so many times. reading these poems alongside the passages of like they drew from was such a rich experience, and brought so much out of the text for me.
