A selection of laissez-faire postparnassian poetry crafted at the crack of dawn. Inspiration comes from online dictionaries' freshly harvested words-of-the-day. A poem might in turn tickle the fancy of the painterly muse; often it merely laughs at its own expense. January 2020 was BC (Before Covid), or not, as we know now. As the virus took off, The Island of Doctor Ironymisch Devilish surfaced - this oil painting will be the companion piece to the twelve chapbooks of the Apropos series.
