An Old Fart and a Thousand Sentiments takes you on an adventure into the fertile imagination of an Old Fart with an unbridled poetic license. Brace yourself for designed lyrical chaos that covers a plethora of fascinating subjects including love, breakups, fantasy, words of wisdom, spirituality, nature, freedom, civil rights, life, death, healing, motivation, humor, the COVID-19 pandemic from the viruses' point of view, etc.


This creative literary resource highlights over twenty-five styles of poetry (and how they're structured) including a few that were created by Phetote Mshairi based on variations of other styles. Take a stroll through the wilderness of wonders with an Old Fart and discover one of your new favorite forms of poetry in An Old Fart and a Thousand Sentiments.


Ever since Old Fart could form sentences, he has been sentenced to a life of making sense of life by translating sentiments into rhythmic sentences call poetry. Poetry is an artform that has countless clearly defined styles. How a poem is written determines the type of poem it is. (If the formula is off, it becomes a different potion.) It's up to the discipline, skill, vocabulary, courage, and imagination of the poet to maintain the parameters and integrity of the form of poem they're writing.


An Old Fart and a Thousand Sentiments is Phetote Mshairi's ode to the artistry of poetry.
