📺 Tune into The Spotlight Network with Emmy Award Winner, broadcaster and actor Logan Crawford (Blood Bloods, The Blacklist, Manifest, Bull, The Irishman, Marry Me, Three Women, The Big Short, Person of Interest, Gotham, The Following, Daredevil, Not Okay, The First Purge ). 🖋️ What does America look like when seen through the fractured lens of dreams and decay? In this evocative episode of The Spotlight Network, acclaimed poet Douglas Cole takes us to the raw edges of reality in his powerful new poetry collection, The Cabin at the End of the World. 🌌 Through surreal prose poetry and haunting social commentary, Cole crafts a vision of America both intimate and unsettling. From fleeting snapshots like “Game of Chicken” and “Double Tree” to the expansive desolation of “Casino People” and “Notes for the Grey Man,” this collection captures the unease of a society on the brink. 💥 With a voice that cuts through illusion and touches the nerve of modern existence, Cole explores what it means to live in the shadow of a fading empire—where even beauty carries a warning.
