Customer Reviews
User popularity level:  out of 5 stars

Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - PBS Compilation Da Bomb
I loved this collection. I especially liked the Peter Frampton retrospective at the end. He really is one of America's greatest writers, and a mormon, too, I understand. And "I'm not going to wear that thing" rules. Keep up the good work. Surf Reality.



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - The author has done a wonderful job in piecing this together
These poems express a rather cultural aspect of American Society. Each reader will, in most cases, be able to "connect" with these poems and what they stand for. They are definately not the typical poems, but what is typical anyway? People from different cultures and different backrounds will identify with the entirety of this book.
