Pieces of Grayscale: Poems, Prose, and Miscellanies is a microchap for the ages. Readers will tumble through the decades - and centuries - to important, pivotal, and, at times, overlooked moments in history, such as: The Easter Rising (also known as the Easter Rebellion) of 1916 in Ireland, Transgender Day of Remembrance (founded in 1999), and the St. Valentine's Day Massacre of 1929 in Chicago.
