| Publisher Description: "Poems for people who don't like poetry" might best describe this slender volume of verse. An unusual and-to those who might not normally read poetry-oddly appealing little book of poems, Cuspidor covers a broad range of timely and timeless themes: from life to death, from love to war and from sound-sense to non-sense. "I too dislike it," a famous poet once said about poetry. One does not have to like it to enjoy this collection; a dislike of poetry might even be an advantage. A thread of sincerity nonetheless runs through these parodies of cherished and inspiring classics scrupulously assembled and presented here with edifying notes. Cuspidor makes for a memorable Christmas or birthday gift, not just for anybody but for everyone. |
