Bilge Pump of a Turgid Mind

BILGE PUMP OF A TURGID MIND is a compilation of 67 poems by up-and-coming indie author Ian McLeod (CURRENTLY UNTITLED). The poems within are intelligent, witty, poignant, morbid, and occasionally worth reading. His form is mostly free verse with sight-rhyme and alliteration, as Ian claims to be "terrible at metered poetry...except limericks, but that's a different book to write." Ian McLeod is heavily influenced by the Modernists, but with enough kick to keep a contemporary reader amused, if not entertained.
