I am pleased to announce my new book, It's Just a Hop, Skip, and a Jump to the Madhouse

Amazon.com: It's Just a Hop, Skip, and a Jump to the Madhouse: Poems: 9798311577410: Case, Thomas W.: Books

It's the little things that
drives one mad,
a snapped shoelace,
on your way to the
liquor store in the
driving snow.
A cockroach in
the cereal,
dead batteries, when all you
want to do is listen
to music.
Shifty-eyed people in
my house, quietly plotting
my demise.
It's the tree of
life, cut down to clear
space for a parking lot.
No love from my brother.
Another frosty day in April.
Cigarette prices constantly
rising astronomically.
Footsteps in an empty
hallway.
It's Just a hop, skip, and
a jump to the madhouse.

Impressed. I believe your work has great potential and I’d love to help showcase it through story art animation and i can help you to reach a wider audience . Additionally, do you have other social media accounts where I can connect with you? You can find me on Instagram: @book_blaze.
