Slip of the Tongue
Slip of the Tongue is a must-read for any fan of contemporary poetry. It is funny, sad, witty, graphic and sentimental all at the same time. Will pick up and read again on many occasions.
Mr. Lumpkin has a style reminiscent of the great ones now gone. Look forward to reading more of his work!
About
Book Reviews
Sex, love, or lack thereof, booze and blues music are common themes exposed in the author's stream of consciousness. His work is sometimes irreverent, raw to the nerve, and edgy, yet self-deprecating and frequently humorous. I recommend Kenneth Lumpkin's "Slip of the Tongue" as a portal through which the reader can begin to understand how another really views the world around him and the comfort he finds through his poems, ones the he treats as his friends.
