Breaking Bad’s Walter White as a Stay-at-Home Dad: 10 Badass Quotes by Ryan Shoemaker
With pop culture poems, I always seek to examine and explore societal issues, gender, sexuality, and other human dynamics. With my Joe Pesci and Werner Catzog poems, I use these personas to explore what it means to be human; with the Pesci poems in particular, I'm examining gender roles and dynamics - and often use my own childhood and background into it, as someone raised in a religious and conservative household. With the Werner poems, I've blended the persona of Werner as a cat to cast the absurdity of modern constructs and expectations, as well as power plays and dynamics.
