Synopsis
Addiction, madness, and survival—laid bare in verse.
It’s Just a Hop, Skip, and a Jump to the Madhouse is Thomas W. Case’s unflinching collection of confessional poetry exploring addiction, memory, and the fragile moments of clarity that surface through chaos. These poems come from the edge of experience—where reflection and collapse often share the same space.
With raw, direct language and a voice shaped by lived experience, Case writes through nights of desperation, barrooms as confessionals, and the quiet aftermath of damage. The writing is stripped down, honest, and emotionally immediate.
For readers drawn to gritty confessional poetry, addiction and recovery themes, and contemporary American verse, this collection delivers intensity without decoration and truth without restraint.
Perfect for readers of Charles Bukowski and the tradition of raw, uncompromising literary poetry.

What people are saying about this new poet that has burst onto the scene: "The comparisons to Bukowski's poetry are obvious: fast-moving free verse in what we assume is the author's voice; struggles with alcohol addiction, self-destructive impulses, and women; a hard-nosed, honest look at the world. But Case is his own person and his own poet. What struck me rather quickly in these poems are the connections to people." "I've read poems by Thomas before and saw him on YouTube. When I heard he had books out I knew I had to get them. I'm so glad I did. His work reflects different perspectives on life. from heartbreak to fear, to alcoholism and assorted others. Being his style is easy to read, I couldn't put it down. Each poem makes you want to read slowly and take in what you're reading, If you're a lover of poetry, I would recommend anything Case writes. "I've been lucky enough to enjoy the words of this tremendous Poet, I've been taken on a journey through each emotion and every image imaginable. The truth is raw and charming, a Poet with enormous courage and a great zest for life, I could describe him as a modern-day Bukowski but he is much more than that" This item is printed on demand.
