      About the Book

      Edit

      The poems herein were written live and anonymously by the man on this book’s cover. Each poem was crafted according to a specific request from its recipient; the poems were gifts to the friendly strangers who requested them.

      One young lady requested a Seuss-style poem about the poet himself. This is what she got (see also p. 1):

      Deep in the grickle grass someone is standing
      Muses are launching and poems are landing
      Twenty-six black and white keys clicky-clacking
      No strangers in old Dupont Circle go lacking

      Where do they come from, all these great idears?
      Facial expressions suggest whirring gears
      And then, in a flash, the man puts down his pen
      Takes a picture, he smiles and is at it again!
