The title of this collection hints at the way the poet registers the sounds in his poems as visuals. Readers will encounter poems about sex, love, lust, death, whores, evil, cakes, tablets, cats, public speaking, haikus, gym, the tsunami in Asia, ageing, tripping, clubbing, plus a few whimsical pieces—all colored by synaesthesia. The poet wrote most of them in free verse, but he didn't forget to put in a couple of rhymes in a few, to underpin the painted or drawn sounds.
