I just noticed that in the Bio on the back cover of the paperback of "Sifting through the madness" it says, " In 1955 he began writing poetry, and his first collection of poems, Power, Fist, and Bestial wail appeared in 1959." Power Fist?, POWER FIST ??!! damn man, kinda takes the oomph out of the title don'tcha think??

Power, fist and bestial wail was not his first book of poems.
It was his first hard-rock album.

That was the collection whitewater fisting. Very rare.

The Power Fist fuck up isn't as bad as saying "In 1955 he began writing poetry," which is off by about a decade.

But really, the whole thing gives me the feeling that these are written by random office workers sitting in a cubicle somewhere reading a xeroxed "factsheet" about an author and typing out blurbs between bites of a cheese sandwich.

What's the over/under on when the first post appears asking about Power, Fist, and Bestial Wail?
