Panic's Hymn

Panics Hymn a reissue / reimagining of the 2005 book Cadillac Battleship is a book about grief as related to physical trauma--how love & marriage might survive this pain & devastation. In reimagining the book 5 (or so) poems were removed as they were problematic in that they directed the hostility of the speakers pain toward women; this simply did not serve the poetry & rather obscured the books lamentation. In addition some small edits to a few poems were made merely for the sake of image clarity & with the intention of not disrupting the speakers voice or POV.Panics Hymn is unflinchingly honest presenting & facing the reality of pain & its related sadness-- to discover hope through the psyches transformation.
