About the Book:
Lies and Games is a collection about what men learn to hide and how that hiding becomes habit. Written from lived experience, these poems explore attraction, silence, and the tension between wanting closeness and fearing it. The poems documents moments and the cost of staying guarded. This book captures the journey of becoming with all the confusion and broken edges that come with it. This is not a love story. It's what happens around one.
About the Author:
A New Yorker by identity, R.R. King learned to live with armor, both literally and figuratively. Known for discipline and presence whose life demanded strength before vulnerability. He spent years building a life defined by control and resilience, but poetry came from the moments when that armor slipped. Lies and Games documents a masculine unraveling. His writing speaks to the experience of standing in a full room and still feeling alone and exploring his adulthood through trials and errors.
