Corpse and Flea: Poems & Drawings

Even if you've never been "into" poetry, give this book a try, and you will be instantly hooked. If you have always been a fan of poetry, you will be delighted to discover a fresh, new voice.

These poems are highly entertaining as they move effortlessly from folksy, down-home wisdom and humor to super-sonic, cataclysmic word play and social commentary. The author jumps from humor to tenderness to rage, and always speaks directly to the heart and addresses the human condition.
