Poetry is not my thing at all, but sharp humour of the dark type most certainly is, and I've enjoyed many of The Grumbling Gargoyle's observant verses on Twitter and her blog.

Some of the poems are heartrending, some harsh, some funny, always cutting straight to the point and never mincing words; the most valuable of any art form is that which dares to be honest, after all.

My favourites:

A Tired Brow
The Kid
The Path of Yesterday
Going Home
Closure
No Salads for Sonya
The Change
Night on the Prowl
The Window 

A worthy addition to anyone's poetry collection!
