From the introduction by Michael A. Arnzen: Welcome to one of the
meatiest collections of grizzly, grotey, bizarro poetry you'll come
across. In other words, "the good stuff." The stuff you like to
read. The guilty pleasure stuff that's hard to come by. Not the
stuff you used to read from your lovers or childhood heroes, or the
stuff you were made to read by your teachers or parents. The stuff
you genuinely like to spend time with, musing and mulling and
mashing. The stuff that makes you guffaw with laughter and want to
read out loud to other unsuspecting people... What they're saying
about The Troublesome Amputee: "Lawson's poetry inspires, sings,
dissects, and screams, reflecting his unique insight to a world
willing to indulge in self-amputation: harming itself in
unexplained ways. Whimsical, strange, and unflinchingly true,
Lawson's work is always entertaining. Like coming home to
unanswered screams, Lawson's poems weave words into unforgettable
songs of sweet darkness." -Linda Addison, Bram Stoker Award winning
author of Consumed, Reduced to Beautiful Grey Ashes "I'm a big fan
of John Edward Lawson's work, and The Troublesome Amputee is by far
his best poetry collection to date. It's sometimes hilariously
funny, sometimes deadly serious, but always morbid (often really
morbid) and thought-provoking. Any horror fan-even those who aren't
into poetry-should check this one out." -Jeff Strand, author of
Pressure and Casket for Sale (Only Used Once) "With this blistering
salvo of poetic gutshots Lawson has proven himself Bizarro's true
bard, its mad laureate. Switching from dark whimsy to retina-blast
shock to political outrage without missing a beat, The Troublesome
Amputee is a powerful collection of pitch-black verse." -Jeremy
Robert Johnson, author of Angel Dust Apocalypse and Skullcrack City
