The debut full-length poetry collection from Brian Foley, The
Constitution boldly disrupts and troubles the beliefs we take for
granted about ourselves and the rights we hold as true. While
investigating ideas of home, love, morality, and loss, the poems also
reflect back upon themselves, offering "amendments," that question and
rethink the poems that precede them. Taken together, the poems of The
Constitution reveal the instability and flux of the principles we use
as the foundation of our selves.
