A Book of Good and Bad Things

By Astroglo DeCerveau

A book of good and bad is an extension of A Prelude of Disclosureit is, in a way, what I call a blatant disclosure. However, to adhere with the norms of society as well as contributing to its fluidity, I took the initiative to slightly curtail and distort several of those rhyming true stories, because the full content might be disturbing to some people or the zeitgeist in general. Nevertheless, I have no doubt that those philosophical concepts and subcultural mores that small groups of people who are brave enough to live by or just experience a few times, will have their time in the future just as alcohol had its time and still has its time for lawful consumption or as the races integrate way better than eighteen hundred or just as other bizarre taboos became laws. Until then, enjoy A Book of Good and Bad Things the way it is, for Im convinced that the public is clever enough to perceive and grasp, through imagination, the omitted verses. So while reading, you can determine whats good or bad using your own diagnosis, and what you do with the knowledge divulged, I leave to your discretion.

Astroglo DeCerveau

Astroglo DeCerveau is the author of A Book of Good and Bad Things, which is an extension of A Prelude of Disclosure written by him also. He wrote his first poem at approximately eight years of age, but began to compose profusely in his adolescence in the form of an outpouring of the mind to empty his psyche of battling thoughts. Currently, Astroglo DeCerveau is working on another book of the same nature and a novel based on a true story. He majored in psychology at Sunny P. I. and Brooklyn College. He lives in New York for the time being.
