Their poetry was really quite good…some of the best I’ve seen to be honest (in my opinion). The poetry in this issue is really something special!!! There’s so much to be explored in this big-assed book!<\/p>\n

\"amelia<\/a>A little about the two covers controversy<\/strong>: originally I was going to use a drawing by Amelia Raymond<\/em> (that’s her holding up her copy of the original cover design) but it was deemed too racy for general consumption, which really surprised me (but I came to realize that what I thought was “normal” was way too liberal, even for the poetry crowd). So, the artful layout designer, Yazoota,<\/em> created the cover you see at the top of the page. But I was saddened by the loss of the more radical cover, so I decided to print a second book with the original cover and to make it really special, I made it a Ltd. Edition<\/strong> (only 125 copies would be printed<\/em>). So make sure you are ordering the right book (the contents are the same in either book, only the covers are different).<\/p>\n

Here are some satisfied customers<\/a>.<\/p>\n
