In Everyone Needs a Fall Guy, Ryan Quinn Flanagan delivers a bold, darkly comic collection that confronts the absurdities and brutalities of modern life head-on. These poems move through bars, bedrooms, churches, malls, and moral dead zones, populated by characters struggling to survive systems designed to fail them.

By turns surreal, profane, and deeply human, Flanagan's work skewers power, exposes hypocrisy, and refuses easy sentiment. Yet beneath the satire and swagger is a fierce compassion - for the overlooked, the broken, and those still standing after the fall.

Unflinching and wildly imaginative, Everyone Needs a Fall Guy is a book for readers who like their poetry sharp, funny, and unafraid to tell the truth.
