Esta obra es la esencia nostálgica que brota del rincón de mi existencia, las que presento en versos los que quizás muchos ojos leerán y al hacerlo no verán, mas mi voz gritara aunque quizás no se oiga, tal vez porque soy la simple lagrima que comienza a recorrer a ciegas y en la oscuridad los senderos de una faz desconocida. En cada uno de estos poemas me encuentro, porque cada uno formo parte de mi ser en algún momento de mi vida y en algún instante de mi vida fueron mi vida en ese instante.

So very rarely is a book of poetry so engaging that it, upon release, immediately becomes essential listening. The emotional rollercoaster that is Damaged, written by Jimmy Broccoli, whips you around on unstable rails, transporting you to a poetic wonderland that challenges the traditional while embracing the unexplored.

Damaged is exposed and vulnerable verse that whispers in bold type.
