Baptism of Apathy J L Hickey

This is the second edition of J L Hickey's first poetry book. The poems were written over a period of eight years. Many of these poems were inspired by Walt Whitman. As the years go by and generations pass and one looks back on these poems, they can be recognized as emblematic of a marginalized voice in a long forgotten time. Religious imagery and language is a staple of this book. This is done to get the point across that every day we make choices that affect the world. Every day people coast through life half asleep and still others forget what great power they have, in their choice to love others or not to. This love is the solution to every problem, even in the world's darkest days. This is a limited edition version.
