This book is like a fresh dose of creativity every time you open it up. Prop is my favorite musical artist, and his book did not disappoint. Every chapter, section, and poem was placed with intentionality and beauty. If you want to be inspired to create a better world, check this book out!

I like propoganda a lot and all his best qualities show up in this book.

I listened to the audiobook which worked well for his spoken word pieces, plus he’s just a great reader.

A sober, truthful look at current events, culture and how to engage with all that is going on.

What a book. A book to serve as a reminder to dream, to slow down, to tell ourselves better stories, to imagine a better future, to be kingdom not empire, to fine tune our eyes to see greatness through gratitude, to go back to our roots and learn your soul, to be present, to hope, to be transformed to support human life: terraform.

This book was a light for me today. Propaganda is one of my favorite artists. He’s real. He’s a storyteller. He loves Jesus which is evident in how He loves people rather than how much he says He loves Jesus. He has a way of conveying truth no matter how hard in his poems. That is all I can really say, but you should listen/read for yourself.

If you aren’t into poetry, I still recommend this book - listen to it through audible. Heck, I love poetry and I listened to the audible because there’s just something about spoken word that hits deep.

I think this is more of a philosophical book than poetry, but it was enjoyable. The essays included were thought provoking and inspiring, all transformed into a consumable form by the author's approach and candor. The overall message that we create our own reality is something worth chewing on.

Permanent keeper 'cause I need the inspiration. Hopepunk to the core, Terraform shows us that the world doesn't have to be like this. We can colonize this planet like we're colonizing Mars: A new chance to start over, right here. Right now. Be more fair. Not just say "Black Lives Matter" but act it out consistently, constantly. Prop gave me new perspective on not giving up just because I'm a microscopic cog in a cosmic plan. Like I said, hopepunk to the core.

This was amazing. I loved how poetry was interwoven with the commentary.

There was a particular conversation discussing memory (about Propaganda discovering he had this cousin) and it was hilarious and really thought provoking. It made me think about how memory changes as we develop and speak to others and its interesting how this interaction can go, especially when the person you're talking to never was aware that you weren't aware of how the memory really was.... that sounds convoluted but trust me, it was fascinating.

There was this cat poem which was just amazing. 

At times the more religious aspects didn't mesh with my enjoyment, but it wasn't over kill.

Overall, this was a really informative eye opening piece.
