Opis

'Intelligent but unpretentious rhyming poetry for intelligent but unpretentious people.' Queenly Kitten, Rosette of Snows Where few dirty mortals go; Why did God grant pretty grace To a perfect killer's face? The time is right for - and the reading public craves - a return to rhyming poetry that is both understandable to all but also 'aristocratic' in its artistic standards. When you read this poetry, you will feel as empowered as a prince. The user-friendly edition also comes with poem-by-poem explanatory notes by the author himself, an essay which defines traditional rhyming poetry in today's context, and a glossary of technical terms. In keeping with its understanding of the reader's needs, this collection includes 51 sizeable poems in all - which is nearly double the length of a standard book of poetry. There is also a variety of poetry types: from descriptive poems about birds and animals, to humorous verse and political satires, and to up-lifting contemplative poetry that makes you think. All this is conveyed in cheekily brilliant rhymes and symmetrically neat rhythms. Here, current ideas, and up-to-date language, are placed in traditional poetic verse. At points in the book, you should read what you always wanted to say, and hear it said superbly. Seriousness made fun.
