Austin Davis doesn't know who the hell Lotus is. He got really high one night and wrote this book. Austin is a poet and activist, studying creative writing at ASU and leading Arizona Jews For Justice's unsheltered outreach program, AZ Hugs For the Houseless. Davis is also the author of The World Isn't the Size of Our Neighborhood Anymore (Weasel Press, 2020) and Celestial Night Light (Ghost City Press, 2020). His new album of jazz-poetry about homelessness, in collaboration with Joe Allie, is called Street Sorrows out on all streaming services. Davis likes late nights at dive bars with people he'd die for, skateboarding down a hill after sunset with his eyes closed, and trying his best not to be too sad about the state of humanity.
