But Today, I Confess -- eBook Edition

What if politicians had to tell the truth about what they were doing instead of telling the public what they want to hear?. From illegal wiretaps to torture memos, from the White House to Guantanamo Bay and Abu Ghraib, the Bush Administration staged a relentless assault upon the rule of law and Constitutional democracy in our nation.. The poems of But Today, I Confess -- including haiku, limericks, sonnets, cinquains, ballads, and blank verse -- use candor and humor to hold the Bush Administration's misdeeds up to the light of common sense.. The collection includes "Secretary of War," recipient of the John Wood Creative Writing Award, and "Poor Harry Whittington," winner of the Evelyn Wade and Viette Sandbank Memorial Prize.. The 2013 eBook edition features six additional poems not included in the 2008 print edition.
