 Reviews of "The Grifters"
Reviewed by Ronald Hull
Reviewed on October 9, 2022
There are a lot of hopeless people who easily find grifters as their saviors only to dig a deeper hole in their collective misery. Some do it for years and don't even know that they are being had.

Much of the economy of southern Nigeria is a result of young men without jobs seeking favors from American widows and raking it in big. There's a big business and milking loneliness.

nothin but creative expression of humanity's hidden truth. your piece reminded me of what you said about the surveillance being placed on poets. you are one daredevil, Sage.
