The longest, most ambitious poetry volume from David M. Briggs yet, Halberd Books vol. 3 presents one hundred never-before-compiled poems about breaking down daily, suffering desperate infatuation, clawing out a home, facing down injustice, scratching down stories, and finding safety in spite of it all. Profane, humane, and slightly deranged, Halberd Books vol. 3 is an impassioned howl of a book.
"David M. Briggs does it again . . . expertly weaves stories that flow perfectly into one another . . . paints a spectacular picture with words."
—Emily Grace, author of Violent in the Ways I Still Love You
"A wonderful collection of poetry . . . the author rages with empathy."
—Joshua Amos Graff, author of Poems Winter 2024
"Breathlesly romantic, angry, lustful, and true."
—Laura E. Price, author of Cobbler's Hill
