Femme Fatales, Movie Starlets & Rockers (Illustrated Haiku and Short Poems) Rp Verlaine

This collection of short poems is my tribute to actresses and singers I've admired, as well as models I've had the pleasure of working with.

The poems pretty much were written in the order in which they appear.* I originally intended it to be a brief free ebook but found the original 22 pages did not tell the story I wanted to tell. It is a tale of my obsessions, therefore it includes only the stars and models I felt closest to. I wanted to join models I've photographed with the great stars of film, television and music. The pictures are joined by poems that give some history and in some cases, very intimate details.

The manuscript somehow grew to nearly seventy pages. In the end, it took over a year to write and photograph.

I can honestly say I'm happy with the results and hope my efforts reward the reader.

*A last minute software glitch required the book to be reedited and reset for publishing. Giving it a more chronological order than it previously had.
