Poetry, chapbook, 28 pages, from Bottlecap Features.
Following in the footsteps of Shel Silverstein—with a dirty, boozy twist— R. J. Gooseman’s Where the Road Begins is a chapbook made to get a laugh out of anybody. Inside you’ll find a beaver in therapy, a mime burning silently in a house fire, a bathroom sink that quits its job, an orgy that goes questionably right...
If you feel too dumb for most poetry, are too dumb for most poetry, or are a smart (you’re not) burnout nostalgic for the days of sitting crisscross applesauce on a sticky classroom carpet listening to funny rhyming poems, then pick up a copy of Where the Road Begins today.
You might regret it!
R. J. Gooseman is a writer and humorist from Columbus, Ohio, and the founder of One Shot Magazine (oneshotmagazine.org). He enjoys lounging at coffee shops and talking to strangers.
