Love Bitter and Sweet

By David Porter and David Lord Porter

Collections of verses on love, both carnal and divine, were sold during the nineteenth century to aid those rendered inarticulate by their ardour or their own illiteracy. The remnants of these compendia are echoed in trite packages of treasure books or personalised valentines. This book is intended as an antidote to such commercial atrophy.

Customer Reviews

This is what poetry should be!

I thoroughly enjoyed David's talent and wit! None of his poems are like the typical rubbish that's frequently labeled poetry these days. No esoteric BS that only the author can relate to.
