Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Confessions of John Allen (and Other Poems)
John allen, of Chicago, Having fasted for years in the Wilderness; Having crossed the burning sands of the Desert; Having wept and moaned in the Shadows; Now come forth upon the dark arena of the World, with a new light, a new faith, To complete the work we were placed on earth to do To annihilate the bandits that surround Life; To make announcements extraordinary, and original; To break every tie held dear to the human heart; To mould the nations into one great family; To plant the seeds of the New Love in all hearts; TO banish the fads and follies Of society; To Shatter every system now in vogue; TO break every law that now exists; TO consign the politician to Oblivion TO plough the dark continent Of the body.
