Wise Dummy Poet is the creative brainchild of Richard Lamoureux. This book flows from his personal experiences. Some of the poems and prose are written about actual people, other poems are his artistic interpretation to express a mood or idea. Through his writing Richard shares how words have impacted his life. Few things in life have more power than the words that make up each of our lives. This is his story in his own words..
At this moment our lives have intersected. It may be a momentary pause that will soon be forgotten or it will be much more. What will you decide to spend a little more time?

Let me absorb your tears...
I’ve got those baby I want you things on my mind
Those ooh baby, pleasured bodies intertwined
She knows all the right places and my pump’s primed
I wanted to talk but the time flew by...
