Birch Barks:
A Sampling of Poems,
Both Naughty and Nice
An inexpensive chap
book
This book serves as an introduction to the
versatility of the author, tracing his progression from writing
clinical reports and
magazine articles, through a series of sexuality self-help books (two
of which
were chosen for inclusion in the Venus
Book Club selection), and on to a clinical manual used for the
teaching
of sex therapy at a graduate school level.
Bob became less "professional" as he began writing limericks, mostly in the tradition of
being
bawdy and politically incorrect. An erotic
novel
followed, also chosen for the Venus Book Club catalog. Erotic short
stories
and erotic poetry followed.
Following a poetry weekend at the 17th Annual Iowa Summer
Writing
Festival, sponsored by the Univerisity of Iowa, Bob's poetry went
in
a variety of new directions. Birch Barks contains
examples
of both metered and free verse. There are examples of sonnets and
ballads.
The sampling contains poems both humorous and serious, both naughty and
nice.
The book is priced at $5.00, but that also includes postage
