Tom Waits is releasing a third print edition of his poem, Seeds On Hard Ground, originally released in 2011 to raise awareness and funds for homeless services. The poem is a long lyrical ballad in the voices of those who walked, fell or were pushed to the margins of our communities. All proceeds from this printing will be donated to the following charities:
• National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI)
• Redwood Empire Foodbank
• The Caritas Village Project - Catholic Charities
• The Society of St. Vincent De Paul
The new chapbook edition underscores the persistence of this condition. Waits appears in a recent episode of the Italian documentary series, The Human Factor, where his poem "Seeds on Hard Ground" provides a throughline to the stories of unhoused Americans living on the fringes of society.
Seeds On Hard Ground, 3rd Edition, will be limited to 2000 copies.
