"The Mission" is a poetry book based on the May through August 2012 issues (and occasional Internet chapbook releases) of cc&d magazine (byline: "the UNreligious, NON-family oriented literary and at magazine", founded 1993, http: //scars.tv/ccd) into this poetry and prose (and very occasionally artwork), published by Scars Publications. "The Mission" was also released not only as an "issues edition" (of the majority of the writings appearing in issues) and a "chapbooks edition" (of the chapbook releases during this period, plus select bonus writings from the issues). This chapbooks edition of "the Mission" contains not only material that was used in performance art shows in Chicago during the May-August 2012 period, but also chapbooks that were even released into 6"x9" ISBN# paperback BOOKS, plus select additions from some of the issues of cc&d magazine. The cover art of this collection book was photographed in Chicago in 2011 (and the color was changed for different editions).
