Boating On The River Styx: A Leap Year Journal Compilation - Paperback

by John G. Willis Aka Steve Plonk (Author)

I have poems covering themes including satyriasis--the opposite of ED--and much adult and young-adult subject matter. Parents and teachers should realize not all subjects of the poetry or journal entries may be acceptable to sensitive readers. After all, the author is experiencing trauma and bringing the readers along on a trip to hades.

Contained within this newest book are poems that show a juxtaposition of bawdy poetry and more inspirational or esoteric and political entries. Poems are on a variety of subjects and are introduced by elegies on Martin Luther King Jr. and senator Robert Kennedy.

The author hopes that these unusual themes of poetic philosophy will clue readers into accepting mental illness and sexual problems of protagonists in the various chapters of the book.
