Threat Come Close
In his debut collection, Aaron Coleman crafts an American anthem for the 21st century, a powerful lyric infused with pain, faith, lust, and vulnerability. Coleman’s poems explore and question the meaning of home and identity for a Black man in America, both past and present. Guided by a belief system featuring an eclectic array of invented saints—Trigger, Seduction, Doubt, and Who—Coleman's journey uncovers new ways of being in the natural world, where “[t]he trees teach me how to break and keep on living.”
