A Coldness. From Start to Finish Raw, Gritty, Sharp And Unapologetic. In Jerry Johnson's "A Coldness", Jerry bemoans and laments the coldness of our current social state, our harsh living conditions, the mistreatment of many of our citizens, the waning of our civility and the absence of our sensibilities. Though this journey through "A Coldness" starts in a dark, cold place - as you journey through this chapbook of poetry you will see how Jerry shines a light on the darkness and spreads warmth during our wintry blues, giving you, the reader, possibilities of change and hope for our future.
