I wrote this collection of poetry, fables, and the random prose wanderings of the mind between ages 16 and 18. It is chock full of sarcasm and references to sex and drugs. Many of the works are self-portraits, though notably not those in the first few chapters--the ones Puritans should never read. Topics include: Christianity, Deism, Sin, Love, Santa, Friendship, Ostracism, Nature, the Military, History, Aliens, Murder, Hypocrisy, Fame, Sleep, Zombies, Revenge, Women, Perspective, Bananas, Vampires, TV, Travels, Dreams, Making Beds, and Perfection, et cetera. Some sections that deserve special mention are: To You, which is a sonnet cycle; Haiku's to No One, which is a poem written haiku-based stanzas; The Lewd Reference Dictionary, which sets forth the true (and unknown) meanings for expletives; Widdles, which are feeble attempts at riddles.
Iyan Igma is a multilingual Army Medic who hails south Georgia, although he transplanted to Montana in his "old age." He loves to hike, camp, swim, cycle, run, canoe, and pretty much anything else that you can do outdoors. Most people wouldn't think that he's as strange as his writings would make him appear. To date, he has written more than a thousand poems and short stories in various styles, a much-beloved twisted cookbook, and a secular devotional. Several children's books and fiction novels, including a fantasy trilogy, might eventually nag at him enough to find their way into the hands of a publisher.
