Prayers With a Side of Cash follows a filmmaker’s journey from New York to Los Angeles, reframing the classic American road trip with a series of poems that witness a country in flux. The collection asks what it means to travel not only through space but through the shifting stories that shape us. Part personal pilgrimage and part exploration of American identity, the poems are accompanied by a soundtrack that dares to believe there is hope to be found in the sweetness of life.
