As far as I know, this is the first substantial collection of the poet's work to be rendered in English.

Then that started an idea for a stand alone sequel to Thriller using his characters The Giovanni Clan which became "The Ticklish Brotherhood."

Just a short poem for someone special. I hope all my readers can appreciate it.
