This anthology is the third in a series of three books by Don Morris. The first book is "Can We Do Better". The second is a "Companion Workbook" to Can We Do Better.
All Don's books are about hope for us humans to do better than a mishmash of historical and current issues and harms that arise from misguided, dysfunctional and destructive expressions of masculinity. As clarified in all the poems - misguided, dysfunctional, harmful masculinity is not by all men, or even by most men, but is too-often manifested here, there, and everywhere by too many men, in too many realms, over too long a time.
The poems weave a detailed network of patriarchal issues in culture, religion, politics, institutions, communities, families, and relationships. They highlight the impact of manmade harms to the earth, First Peoples, women, children, and other often-disempowered societal groups.
Some men might struggle with this unusual and confronting anthology. In contrast, it is likely that a good proportion of women will nod and sigh as they work their way through the poems and themes.
The poems advocate that societal evolution is contingent upon a critical mass of us facing key facts, truths and realities about wayward masculinity. The anthology concludes with a range of powerful and hopeful invitations that may help us humans do better than our history of man-made harms to ourselves, our kindred species, and the earth ... our Mother.
