  The life and career of a Poet is often thought of as musing at a desk, or lying in a meadow, or on long journeys to find inspiration for their next masterwork.  But more often than not a poet was a part-time profession in subservient submission to their actual, salary-paying job.   
  In this volume we bring together men of the cloth, those people of faith who spent most of their lives in devotional duties in the service of one so they could, in their spare time, serve another.

  The stereotypical image of a poet is one of unknown talent starving in a garret and who’s faithfulness and legacy to the art is discovered only after their death. 
  In some cases this is undoubtedly true, but Poets being human and with the same building blocks of physical and mental health as the rest of us, also had the same afflictions and problems as the rest of us.   
  The long roll call of names and the truncated legacies that were left behind is filled with these lost talents. 
  In this volume we bring together the poems and verse of those wordsmiths whose lives were blighted by drink and the seemingly unending consumption of it.   
  The long roll call and the truncated legacies that were left behind is filled with the names of these lost talents.

  When examining his own poetry Reinfred Dziedzorm Addo often finds he is merely a conduit for the words, the inspiration source itself being a force or another being. In acknowledging a poem’s inspiration source, he calls the resulting work a ‘dedicada’, meaning something written in dedication or in recognition of another. 
  A debut full poetry collection, Washed Over expands upon Addo’s chapbook The Dedicadas and is a journey through a space filled with a breadth of forces and beings active in one’s existence. Identity, chaos, autumn colors, exile, people learning from the universe itself...these and other dedicadas make this collection an exploration of the experiences of someone washed over by life’s many inspirations.
