They Ain't All Pretty, But Some Of Them Rhyme

by Wayne DePriest

Compiled here are upwards of a hundred poems of wit and whimsy and not a bit of angst-filled longing or despair or self-analysis in the bunch. Animals, grandchildren, lawn chairs, and buildings are the subject matter. Body parts and grammar and classic movies provide fodder for the author’s imagination. One might even discover a “message” lurking in the lines, though one might suspect it wasn’t intentional.

About the author

A tall, mustached and rarely serious man, Wayne flies in the face of convention. After convention brushes him away, Wayne flies in the face of adversity. When he isn’t flitting around annoying time honored concepts, he writes a poem or a hundred or shoots pool or kills someone in a book....like "Selected” or the forthcoming “The Button Man”.

Wayne lives and writes in a suburb of Minneapolis, MN, with two cats and one wife. He is older than the picture might suggest.
