Protest Poems: Peace Poetry

Protest Poems: Peace Poetry is a grounded and urgent collection that explores the space between resistance and reconciliation. In these poems, Spencer Sheehan-Kalina writes with clarity and restraint, giving voice to the quiet insistence of care in a world shaped by conflict, inequality, and change.

Rather than turning away from struggle, the collection moves through it—naming harm while also reaching toward repair.

These poems hold both witness and hope, asking what it means to speak, to refuse, and to imagine peace not as absence, but as active, ongoing work.

Direct yet contemplative, Protest Poems: Peace Poetry invites readers into a practice of attention—where language becomes a site of presence, and even small words can carry the weight of change.
