Book Review

This review is from: Strange Spirits (Volume 1) (Paperback)by H. Jeremiah Lewis, aka Sannion. Sannion is a priest of Dionysus. Strange Spirits is a volume of his poetry and some of his prose about the Greek god of wine, sex, ecstasy and poetry.

First you drink a quart of wine, then take a trip to Sannion's mind.
Just come on in, there is no line, and who knows what gems you'll find?
There's Harlequin, and minotaurs too,
Arachne and the Holy Fool.
Dionysus leads the maenad throng,
Who'll dance in ecstasy, all night long.
Look there! It's John the Baptist's head!
And Jim Morrison--he ISN'T dead!
It'll all make sense, you'll see, you'll see,
I read it and it does to me!
Oh dear, I've put on this ivy crown,
The room is spinning--I must sit down.
