Truth, Applied is a collection of poems that refuse abstraction when it obscures what holds.
These pieces move beyond observation into assertion—naming distortion, confronting false equivalence, and testing what remains when power, perception, and narrative are stripped away.
This is not poetry that lingers in uncertainty.
This is poetry that lands.
