Thomas W. Case is an American poet known for his raw, gritty, and honest verse that delves into the human experience with unflinching authenticity. His poetry has drawn comparisons to literary icons like Charles Bukowski and Leonard Cohen, blending streetwise realism with lyrical depth. Case’s work has been featured in numerous anthologies worldwide, earning him a dedicated readership and critical acclaim. Book Blurb: Sleep Always Calls is a bruised-knuckle prayer whispered into the void. In this raw, unflinching collection, Thomas W. Case peels back the scabs of everyday life to reveal the poetry bleeding underneath. With echoes of Bukowski's grit and Cohen's haunted grace, these new poems prowl through midnight streets, broken dreams, and the quiet ache of survival. Sleep Always Calls doesn't ask for permission—it kicks down the door and tells the truth anyway.
