Out On The Killing Floor

WARNING!!!

Take only as prescribed. Keep out of reach from children, pets, pregnant women and anyone who still has any hope for the future. May cause sleeplessness, fatigue, depression, anxiety, suicidal thoughts or visions of impending doom. Some readers may experience weight gain, the heavy weight of existential dread. User assumes all risk and releases the author from any and all legal liability. This book is not approved by the FDA or anyone else who enjoys being happy. May be illegal in your area.

Horror poetry? What's that? Well, try to imagine that Stephen King wrote poetry, instead of novels and short stories. It's like that, only more twisted and messed up in the head.

The dark themes here are those of destruction, famine, plague, war, the end of the world, serial killers, neighbor pitted against neighbor, natural disasters, monsters, demons and the doom promised to us by the ever-worsening climate emergency.

If you're unable to stomach heavy, emotional movies, like The Road, Hotel Rwanda, The Pianist, Million Dollar Baby, Schindler's List, Requiem For A Dream, A Clockwork Orange, Full Metal Jacket, Apocalypse Now, One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest, Taxi Driver, Finch or Don't Look Up, you're going to absolutely hate this book. It contains all manner of worst-case scenarios and dead end problems that offer no solutions. However, if you enjoy gallows humor and you prefer to look reality straight in the eye, then you're in the right place. Enjoy the darkness. There's more than enough of it to go around.
