"[Tom's].... poetry ... expresses, with puns and playfully simple metre and rhyme, some perceptive and thought-provoking ideas; in this case, he examines the notion that life and matter self-generated from nothing. I like his teasing, good-humored style."
--Frederica Mathewes-Green, author and commentator

"... through humor and parody, Tom exposes the absurdity of the idol worshiped by so many in the culture, Scientism. And this he does well. While I enjoyed reading Tom’s reflections on the subject, what thoroughly captivated me was his poetry. Apologetics mixed with poetry? How wonderfully different! Only an artist would dare to do such a thing. Hands down my favorite is, “We are Robots! We are Puppets!” It’s fabulous!
If you want to learn apologetics in an interesting and new way, check out Tom’s website. It will draw out the artist in you! "--Patty Houser (Veritas Forum, President, "Women of Truth")

“Tom Graffagnino can put stingingly poignant truth into poetic couplets as nobody I've ever seen before. What he has is a real gift. The gift is in the ability to comprehend the insanity of it all and the other gift is to reduce it to biting poetry in a marvelous way.” –P. H. (retired pastor)
