Resist and Perish

<p><strong>Resist and Perish</strong> is a defiant collection of modern American poetry that confronts the crushing weight of conformity corruption and fear. Samuel Ludke's words burn with urgency-part war drum part funeral hymn-summoning the courage to stand apart even when the cost is everything.</p><p>With unflinching honesty and razor-sharp imagery Ludke explores the thin line between rebellion and ruin the solitude of the outcast and the unbreakable spirit that refuses to kneel. Each poem is a challenge a confession and a dare pushing the reader to choose: surrender to the machine or face the fire with unshakable resolve.</p>
