“If you can’t say anything good, don’t say anything at all,” repeated my parents.
That’s no fun.
No elite stuff here. Forget your black turtleneck and beret. These are poems for the masses. It’s time to savor those pet peeves and daily annoyances.
Self-proclaimed poet Thomas S. Owens complains, so you don’t have to!
The mumbling public radio host, the person who stole Tom’s place in the supermarket line, the mooching college alumni department, a too-cool youth minister, toilet-sitting phone chatters and Tom himself -- no one is spared in this snarky collection of free-verse frustrations.
You’ll get 102 (yes, middle-class poetry people get a bonus ditty) off-beat odes in this inaugural edition of 101 PO’ed Poems. It’s better to laugh than cry. Laugh along with this put-upon poet.

YES!!! Owens has crystallized all those nibbled-to-death-by-minnows daily aggravations that wear on the soul into hilarious poems that will have you nodding and laughing with their keenly-observed truths. And, as an added bonus, these little gems will offer reassurances that you're not the only one who is driven to distraction by the likes of inane advertising, clueless neighbors, your ownfamily, and the decline of civilization in general. Where else can you get a belly laugh and peace of mind for only ninety-nine cents?
Highly recommended!

101 PO'ed Poems Frustrations in Free Verse edition by Thomas S Owens Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
Veteran writer Tom Owens may actually BE the sharpest knife in the drawer -- certainly a candidate for sharpest wit. So many fine moments to savor in this new book of free verse. Collectively, Tom's short poems serve as the ankle-biting dog that goes after the stupidity, rudeness, and monumental cluelessness that permeate the human condition. ("Attaboy! Good dog!") His mini-screeds are alternately dry, wry, and laugh-out-loud funny. Cheers to you, Tom Owens, for staying PO'ed throughout the creation of these poems.
This is a book written by and for the Humble Everyman,
celebrating, in poetry, the Annoyances,
Puzzlements and Irritants of daily American life.
The titles give you a hint

Irritating people get their come-uppance in free verse.
It's braver to savor a poem than to get punched in the kisser.
Being a Humble EveryPerson myself, I give this book a "5".
Thomas Owens's PO'ed free verse poems are snippets of life's small but irksome inconveniences. Read these poems aloud to friends who have a sense of the absurd. The book is hilarious.
