As a counter-culture writer, emphasizing the pointless mundane activities of modern day life, M. J. Poynter openly attacks social conformity illustrating its effects upon the human spirit through acts of temporary insanity. Based largely upon personal experience and combining elements of fantasy with a blatant sense of wry humour, Tales of Ordinary Madness, is the writers first collection of beat poems. Inspired by the people of the streets and their underground existence, these works are intended to display a sense of "dirty realism" through their portrayal of petty criminal activity, acts of self-destruction and conditions of social deprivation. These simple effective story poems bare an unmistakable trademark with their straight-talking first person narrative and sassy raw colloquial tone.
