by E'Mon Lauren (Author)
E'mon Lauren's poems take artifacts, language, and ephemera from life on Chicago's Southside and Westside to create a manifesto of survival and growth. These poems from Chicago's first Youth Poet Laureate grapple with sexism, racism, love, and class with a style that announces Lauren as a poet to watch.
Commando is an aesthetic stick up, hallelujahs in a handbag with a handgun. The first collection from the city's first youth poet laureate is a manifesto for a solider at war.
