From the Tongue Of an Experienced Simpleton

From the Tongue of an Experienced Simpleton is an attempt to break language and to reshape it. All of the poems inside are defined by the constraint that was used to create them. They shackle language and twist it, to the point of breaking. But even in these adverse conditions language persists. It is the spirit of this endurance that this collection hopes to celebrate.
