Bill Black illustrates what happens when you live by the stories from songs listed on old jukeboxes found in the types of places your mother warned you about, religions moralize against, politicians hit for donations and everyone else says, Damn, I wish I could have been there! The poem stories explore the murky boundaries of meanings of morality, ethics and legality, of shadow realms between the world of known science and almost forgotten myths. He taps into chords almost 4000 years old and as recent as yesterday afternoon. Is it a realm of venal and deadly sins? Well, maybe, but only if done correctly. Snowflakes beware! You will be offended and maybe melted. The title of the book is derived from a Cajun song about a now departed girlfriend. It has been sung and recorded by singers across most of the US. The book provides a variety of answers to what could happen to the Jolie Blons we encounter.
