FOREWORD
I met a new friend through a group of thinking people. Some of them give out a horde
of comments I prefer to take in cursory fashion. Some in more detail worth for scrutiny.
Many entitled to the bin. But one deviates from them all…one that triggers more neural
interactions for a thinker.
This is the guy who does poetry too. Expect to be mentally tinkered by his poems far
different from the sultriness of an Emily Dickinson or the forbidden pieces of Walt
Whitman.
Find out. Figure out. Fiddle with its bits and pieces and end up tinkered. Open the
pages…

INTRODUCTION
This edition includes the poems completed by non-poet Dex Amoroso, together with a few
unfinished poems which Dex preserved in his cluttered files and folders. His poems mostly
written in a free verse as he finds it hard to rhyme words. They are just pieces of a larger story
or memory or experience that rattle around his head. It focuses on everything and anything
making this poems collection as diverse as life itself. He chose not to include some poems he has
thought too nakedly personal, or too raw, others simply not good enough. After all he is not a
real poet.
If his words convey thought, make you laugh, give you a better understanding or inspire you to
write your own, he has contributed something of value. That makes him happy.
(Andra and unknow picture-owners, I am still searching for you to give you credit.. yuhoo where
are you?)

Kim Chiu,
He loves you
so much
that he can't pass a poet
without asking for a poem
about you.
He says
that he has no skill with words
and your gentleness might be torn
by words as rough as his.
He asks me
for a way of speaking
And I tell him
to give you this
IN PRAISE OF “BOOKED” AND DIGITIZED
THOUGHTS!
