The Tao of HB is not is not just another poetry book. it is a book that portrays some very harsh realities in life. The five chapters of The Tao take the reader through a four year period of the author's life while dealing with the calamities of divorce, drug use, gambling addiction, frustration and self discovery. Very upfront and sometimes graphic, these poems are written in an easily understood bootleg form of American poetry.

sounds like a good honest book, one thing about the verse curse is that poets have a tendency to spill the beans, i use do mother in law verse until one day i finally figure i was in enough trouble with my wifes family, so now i stay away from this type poetry
