Review: Raw, real, and utterly erotic.

The Book of Real and Imaginary Girlfriends is very Ginsberg-esque. Moctezuma Johnson, however, has his own unique style. I found myself disappearing in to a scene. Like I was some revolutionary on the cusp of change, and these poems illustrated my plight. It all felt very taboo, yet entirely raw and real. I wanted to hold the book up and say "see this is what's going on!" but then I looked around and was only surrounded by sunflowers. This book is sexy and utterly erotic. It holds nothing back and behaves to no societal norms. Read it.
