About This Book
Within the pages of this slim volume is an olfactory surprise for the reader. It is in no way hidden and these pungent poems slip from page to page easily. Adjei Agyei-Baah is a poet of supreme confidence no matter if he is composing poems of flowers, birds, and animals, or the melodious and odoriferous nature of humans making wind. In short, this book is a collection of poetic brain farts by someone who claims to be a master at passing gas. I have to say that while reading it I did take an occasion or two to salute his work with my own contributions using the ‘form’ in question.
Seriously now, Adjei has a wonderful way of making the ordinary become extraordinarily good poetry, and fun to read. I strongly recommend that you sit down to read this book after having eaten a big bowl of beans! After all, haiku and senryu are all about ‘linking and shifting’.
