"The Smart Mouthed Victim" is a collection of poems, lines and verses written and compiled by the 'freelance arthole' Thom Seddon. The chosen pieces have been weaved together with a common theme of that awful sinking feeling you get when you think about how much time you've wasted, blaming yourself for the way life turned out, and what you could have said and/or done to make things different. Often blunt and deeply confessional, sometimes sombre and frequently funny, this is selection of works penned, typed and scribbled, infrequently, over a number of weeks, months, and indeed years, by an optimistic pessimist. At last, "The Smart Mouthed Victim" is prepared for your perusal, to enjoy or despise. Whatever reaction you think best.
