In Windows to Minds, Martinez masterfully uses free form poetry to present perspectives of life that range from pleasantly endearing to shockingly confrontational. He invites readers to open their minds and consider his perspectives, while ultimately challenging them to think for themselves and not take anything he or anyone else says for granted. At the end, he even invites them to put their own perspectives on life into words!

Windows to Minds has the power to either demand you turn the pages quickly, or force you to slow down and think. Its brutal honesty may have the same person who nods their head in agreement at some points, shake their head and curse under their breath at others. Perhaps not since Walt Whitman has free form poetry taken such a powerful form. But Martinez is not the next Walt Whitman-he is the first Michael Martinez, and this manifesto of his opinions and perspectives attests to this.
