A Bottle Of Resent (ePub)

The first poem is titled after the book. 'A Bottle of Resent', the first poem that is, immediately introduces humor to the book. After all, humor is what this poetry book is based on. Somebody wrote 'the third testament'. Could it have been the author, in his intoxicated state. Bernard is very convincing after all! If he is all that convincing, surely he will gain many followers. It is true that humor has many followers, and the author projects humor at its best, in this book. Numerous followers have tried to lure the author away from his poetry with requests to play games, and questions on poetry itself. He retaliates, by answering humorously, as can be seen in poem three and four. Being an author, there are many occasions of interruptions by one's kids and spouse, breaking the rhythm of concentration. In cases like this one often gives abrupt answers, in order to gain peace and quiet. How often one makes promises, without actually giving it thought. When finally realizes what has been promised, it is too late, and the only way to correct the situation is to add provisions!

Hahaha! An example of this can be seen in poem two. Bernard promises his little brats a adventure, only to get rid of them. He then demands a lock of mom's hair, with good reason. Once mom is annoyed, the kids won't go anywhere!

'I quizzically quote' refers to a stolen identity. This is something that happens regularly in modern society.

As usual, the author mocks people in a humorous way, and his favorite target is himself. His secondary targets are fat people, his family and friends, and last but not least, spammers, who continuously stalk his famous poetry group.

An example of his self mockery can be seen in 'The Escape Hatch Was too Small'. You probably see through this poem, by simply noting the title. No, there is more too it! Well, I dare not let the cat out the bag, for fear of confronting a pissed hag! Hahaha!

Now I am off to tea! Would You care to join me? There is place enough for three!

Please enjoy this short, but excellent poetry book.
