Description
Over ten years in the making, this long-awaited book features selections from 402 poems written by J. Riddles from 2003-2007, with illustrations by Fizzi Pop. Psychedelic verses include made-up words and unusual syntax to devote expression to sound, sometimes more than meaning. Misspelled words and offbeat grammar represent Riddles' unconstitutional rebellion against American poetry and literature. The title reflects the author's disagreement with Walt Whitman's famous poem I Hear America Singing.
