Summary: surprise!
Review: got in touch with my ex-girlfriend and she derisively threw this little gem at me: "trying to pass yourself off as an english poet, are you?" i replied "no!" because i wasn't, even though it looked like i was.
you see, dear reader, she had done a search on google for my name a while back (she still cares!) and this poetry book anthology came up, with one of my very old poems under a very old title (the poem is actually called "layla's poem" now). i never thought i had ever gotten anything published. hell, i haven't even written poetry in years (after i figured out that nobody really gave a flying rats backside about my rants, entertaining as they were)!be that as it may, it's a good poem, in my stable of good to mediocre poems, so i give michelle lovric lots of credit for knowing how to pick em. at least she didn't put one of my stinkers in there. props michelle! just one more thing: the book apparently lists me as an english poet, but i'm not an english poet. i am a floridian poet who once lived in london and got kicked out for working as an illegal alien. in the grand scheme of things, there's not alot of difference, i suppose. now, i'm off to try and get a complimentary copy of this book (still can't afford to buy poetry) so i can impress my friends, chicks, and influence other people! yay dale carnegie! yay poetry!

Summary: beautiful, angry, and painful
Review: This is an awesome collection of poetry. If you've had enough of cheesy, happy-ending love poems, this book is for you. Some of these poems are so raw they are painful. The poems in this book span the emotions of anger, jealousy, longing, bitterness, desire, and a little bit of love and forgiveness. Another thing I love about this book is that the poems are taken from a wide variety of poets of many different nationalities. I found many of the poems unique, new, and fresh to my eyes (and heart). If you've been searching for a way to express the raw feelings of a broken heart or intense longing, check out this book!
