Fight Songs for the Underdogs

With a backbeat of determination, Denton offers up love songs to working mothers, trade unions and artists, capturing the essence of skirting poverty among rust and depression. Fighting fire and hatred with words, these poems tender sparks during dark times.
~Jonie McIntire, Poet Laureate of Lucas County, Ohio

Poet-as-prophet! Worker-as-witness! Denton stands at the confluence of sweat and stanza where calloused hands and unflinching verse carve truth into the fabric of working-class. From organizing to resisting to refusing to let silence smother solidarity -- each line is a ledger of real lives.
