About Dave Harm
|
of an Alcoholic Addict
|
Damaged Merchandise, is a book about hope and dreams. Even those lost in an
alcoholic or drug induce haze, have dreams. They were just lost or "damaged" due to
the abuse. With sobriety, came the knowledge that I needed to live in the real world.
Still, with reality it was OK to dream. And with reality, I achieved goals, which I hoped
would make my dreams come true! Damaged Merchandise,
is the story of dreams coming true, while living in the real world.
Told through stories and poems, Damaged Merchandise: Poems and Stories of an
Alcoholic Addict, is my story. A story of destruction and damage, which 10 years
later, I'm still trying to correct. At times, the poems leave the reader wondering
"what if?" and that's OK, because the final chapter, in my life has yet to be written.
From homelessness, to ODing, failed suicides, running and hiding (both from myself and
the law), its all here. From drug dealing, to stealing, to hitch-hiking the USA, the
reader enters a world, where few go and fewer survive! from the author
