In the third installment of the Compass Point Series, McKenzie opens up about the black emotions carried within. From childhood feelings of not fitting in to adult anxiety, depression and some of the awful things people do to each other. This is an unflinching look into his mind and presented without apology. Accompanying these poems are a series of photos from Ian DeWitt. They represent his interpretation of each with sometimes startling clarity. "These poems are not fun. They are not light-hearted. In many ways these poems allowed me to talk to someone when no one was there. Each one is a knife I managed to pull out and leave behind."
