Description:
*Verses for the Damned* by James Ridner is a transgressive poetry collection that dismantles societal hypocrisy through a lens of rebellion and existential defiance. The poems begin with a call for proletariat revolution, condemning oppressive institutions. As the work progresses, it glorifies hedonism and crime as natural antidotes to artificial virtue, personifying Nature as both a muse and tyrant. The latter poems delve into nihilistic introspection, rejecting divine morality and embracing individual caprice as liberation. Ultimately, the collection argues that true freedom lies in rejecting societal constraints and surrendering to Nature’s chaotic, amoral beauty. --- [COPYRIGHT INFO]
