This is a compilation of poetry, prose, and short stories from 2008-2017 by Newamba Flamingo, of Miami Beach, Florida. It was inspired by Ouija boards, aliens, and prescription meds. 

Featuring previously published: "Getting Naked at Work and Reciting Shakespeare" (2008) "Punch you in the face" (2008) "Shooting Midgets from a Catapult and Watching our Teacher Tap Dance Nude" (2009); collaborations with Frankie Metro, "KKK Cannibal Dentist" (2011) and Yossarian Hunter, "Freedom of Enterprise in the Waste Management Industry" (2009), plus many writings that have made the rounds online and several unreleased poems and stories, photography and artwork, as well as the new pieces "Going to Singapore" (2015) "Bald Head Fred" (2016) and "African Safari" (2017). 

7 or 8 years too late, Newamba decided to put this compilation together because he ran out of prescription drugs, didn't have anything better to do, and couldn't contact his psychiatrist (possibly due to restraining order). He also felt there are people who need to be harassed, amused, and disappointed by online writing. 

Most of the contents of this book have been rejected by literary magazine and poetry editors, even when offered sexual favors, while others have been previously published in magazines like Kleftjaw, Red Fez, Zygote in my Coffee, Wordriot, decomP, Unlikely Stories, Modus,The Meth Lab, Molotov Cocktail, and Paraphernalia Quarterly.
