| This is my shrine to Dean Koontz, the greatest author of all time. For your reading pleasure, I will put in every poem I can access from the Book of Counted Sorrows. I will add on to it a little at a time. I have other crap to do than copy poems from a book into my site. | ||||||

But goodness, kindness, and love arise In the heart of the poor beast as well. |
