Underboard and Other Plans... a collection of verse  

Underboard and Other Plans is a collection of lyrical, often humorous, topical poetry written by Canadian journalist Barry Moores from 1988 to 2012. This "citizen poetry" observes and chronicles society and history from the perspective of a long-time scribe. Underboard is a word built to describe the feeling of being trapped beneath the hull of the craft. Hurricanes, desert wars, altruistic dope dealers, finding a saviour, life, death, anti-intellectual lovers and housecats are just a sample of the topics covered throughout Underboard. Moores has a background in print, broadcast and promotional media. Half of the sales of this book will be donated to a fundraising campaign started by his friends from university in order to raise money for an advanced treatment for multiple sclerosis. Barry has had MS since 1993.
