I am Disgusting: Poetry for a Movement by Jeff McCarley
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
Often witty, almost always crass, sometimes hilarious — but not for those with a squeamish nature. I won this book in a Good Reads giveaway. If I could give half stars, this one would be 3.5 stars. My main criticism is that at times I felt it was a bit repetitive. Maybe that was intentional. The book contains poems that rhyme and haiku. It has an “Ode to Poop,” and a parody poem entitled “Craven,” taking its structure from the Poe poem, “The Raven.” Part of me was a bit surprised so much could be squeezed out of such an offal subject.
