In September 2003 Rob Read began to edit, transform, and treat his incoming junk e-mail or spam into poems which were then sent out again to a list of friends he thought might appreciate them. In fact, the present publisher discovered the first of them in his junkmail box, where his email program had conveniently filed them. Initially sent away with no archival copies saved, this collection represents Reads revisiting of these (almost) daily poems, which were luckily saved by a recipient who felt they were important enough to archive.
