Product description...

Ina Kleina Darkmusk, Mozartian muse:
This book won’t win any awards, or even sell much, but you’ll be glad to have it on your bookshelf. Refer to it during “those” times wherever they fit in your life. Enthusiastic five!!!!!

Sarabeth Quigner, celebrated stargazer:
As the well-known blues man, SonniBoy Tonedeffen famously sang: “disguising myself as a tulip just to keep from choking” this is what you’ll find in Katharine VanDewark’s humorous book of poetry. It will frost your dark.

Anonymous figure from history:
If it doesn’t make you smile or scratch your head and wonder, get yourself to your mechanic. You may be in need of a tune-up.

Jacksong Pollacphish, obscure painter: The artwork is nothing short of a finish line.

from Personal Ads:
Delicate chartreuse woman with citrus colored beak and wicker thighs seeks prosperous cheese monger for stultifying helicopter rides over Panamanian strip malls.
