Publisher's Synopsis
"Big Bruiser Dope Boy is a poetry legend. Your First Real Boyfriend & Other Poems is a killer book. I loved it. Our very own Genet is alive and well and he's ready to steal your shit."-Scott McClanahan, author of The Sarah Book"The voice of this book. It has everything I want and yet I really can't explain it. It's hurt shit. A laugh that ends with a turned head and a teary eye. Each poem sings for lost unknowns to come home. It's funny, straightforward, absurd, sad, and, ultimately, true in the way that only art can be. Say hello to the gay Rodney Dangerfield. Say hello to the Boom Doctor. Say hello to your first real boyfriend. Join me in welcoming this new voice. The Big Bruiser Dope Boy. One of the new wolves. May he forever huff and puff. We will never escape his cartoon."-Sam Pink, author of Person & The Garbage Times/White Ibis
