Eddie Joe Beers - Louder. Sharper. Less forgiving.
If Part I was the hit-
this is what happens after.
Look at Me When I'm Hitting You - Part II pushes deeper into working-class pressure, creative survival, and the aftermath of seeing things too clearly.
The tone shifts.
The distance between thought and truth disappears.
This is not a repeat.
It's escalation.
Built from the same raw structure-short, direct, impact-driven pieces-this volume is used when the first hit wasn't enough.
This book is used:
- when anger turns into clarity
- when clarity turns into isolation
- when creative thinking needs sharper edges
- when surface-level truth stops working
Inside:
- short-form, high-impact poetry with no filler
- working-class perspective without compromise
- dark humor, reflection, and stripped-down confrontation
Some of these pieces experiment with voice and structure-
including early AI-collaborative work-not as a gimmick, but as pressure against the limits of authorship itself.
No soft exits.
No safe distance.
Look at Me When I'm Hitting You - Part II
The final inspiration of the Backpocket Poetry series.
Not louder for the sake of it-
clearer because it has to be.
