“Here he goes again. Rhyming reality! Lysgaard’s political poetry takes on the hypocrisy of our leaders, the greed of the corporate class, and the ugly legacy of the Bush/Cheney gang!”~ Peter B. Collins (The Peter B. Collins Show, San Francisco. peter@peterbcollins.com).

“Many people are passionate about the issues, but few are willing to put that passion to work. Then there is Mark Lysgaard. Babbling On In Babylon is a collection of poetry that is enlightening, emotional, passionate, funny, serious, educational, and memorable. Not your traditional political book. I thoroughly enjoyed it!” ~ Jon Elliot This is America with Jon Elliot (Progressive Talk, San Diego). jon@jontalk.com.

“Lysgaard exposes the bat squeeze on corporatism and corruption. His clever use of rhyme and meter, humor and political satire is hilariously unique. I am a firm believer in the Eleven Demand-ments!“~ Mike Malloy (Progressive Talk, Atlanta) www.mikemalloy.com.

“Lysgaard’s rhythmic rants, take us through the final days of the Bush crime family, the ‘08 election, and the hope for the Obama administration through the Eleven Demand-ments. This is a must read for all progressives who enjoy intelligent rhyme and meter mixed with humor and political satire.” ~ Cindy Sheehan (Progressive Talk, San Francisco) (www.CindySheehansSoapBox.com)
