A few years ago I began an interactive poetry challenge on my blog. It involved the public sending me 1-2 word titles and I had to send back a poem to each title within 48 hours.
Ranging from surreal, to grungy, from romantic, to funny, from political to symbolic and everywhere in between, the poems were as diverse as the titles sent in. Weirdos Like Me is now a 240 page collection of poetry, art and surrealism. Half of the book is artworks making the book an art book as much as a poetry book. Amidst the poetry and paintings are also song lyrics to songs I perform with Donna And The Aspinauts. Each book is personally signed.
From surrealism to satire, Donna plunges the reader into a world of wonder, substance and reflection as she dissects today's critical social and political issues and leaves us reunited with the spiritual ones.
