Book Description
Poetry. Written under the spell of a medieval Welsh poetic form, the poems in Anthony Madrid's incantatory second book, TRY NEVER, each offer up their own strange world. They're full of erudition, humor, and rare magnificence. A single poem can contain "bottles and cans," Mount Everest, an upset stomach, Texas rain, a hawk, the evil queen, a "twice- mended lid," and Ralph; as if to say, anything's possible.

Some Limericks
Author: Norman DouglasPublisher: Atlas
ISBN: 9781900565493
Category : Bawdy poetry, English
Languages : en
Pages : 109
Book Description
This collection has the dubious distinction of being one of the most pirated books of all time. Since its first appearance in 1928, illegal editions have appeared with remarkable regularity. The reason? Once considered obscene - it reprints a large number of the most 'savoury' limericks known - it is also very, very funny due in great part to the author's dead-pan commentaries and 'geographical index'. Douglas' erudition effortlessly traverses topics as diverse as the mudflats of Leigh-on-Sea, the dahlias of Central America and the habitat of the Silesian tapeworm.
