(From the Forward)
"You can view Alan Justiss' poetry as found poetry. It is communication created by a prisoner with words clipped from magazines or conversations snatched from the ether to tell the story of his life, a layering of images upon images to describe the jumble of thoughts and pictures clamoring for release... The layered raw images of Alan's poetry give us a small peek into the layered rawness of his life. They are his words. They are his life."
