I thoroughly enjoyed this collection of poems and short stories. This mixed style can sometimes be difficult to navigate and assess, but once I finished reading, I could see a clear theme: bitterness disguised in a thin veil of humor. 
 The last line of the last entry (a poem called Food Chain) is quite telling: "I loved my life." This seems like a mocking attempt to convince the reader that despite a hard life of racial confusion, profiling, and hatred (that we are bombarded with throughout this collection), life is good. Really, it is. No, seriously. It's great. I loved my life. F#@& You!
