PETE SIMMONS is a retired journalist (newspapers, radio, TV), having spent more than 40 years working around the world for major American TV networks. With vast experience in Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and Asia, he has witnessed the worst — and the best — in humankind. This has given him a critical, if not cynical, outlook on life. He is an ordained minister in the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster, and currently lives in Boise, Idaho, where he can regularly escape human activities by fleeing into the surrounding rugged mountains.

AN IRREVERENT LOOK AT LIFE IN POETIC FORM.
Perverted Verse takes the drudgery out of poetry, and even if you could never quite get through Tennyson in school, you will find the insights in this collection worth cracking the covers. You don’t have to be perverted to read these verses, but it helps. If you can keep a sense of humor and not keep your preconceived beliefs, you will find this volume enjoyable. From the Higgs Boson to lawyer-hate, here is a different view and a fresh way to look not just at poetry, but the world. Don’t let poetry scare you nor poets intimidate you.
