From Tiki Farm:

"The Poached Poet Tiki Mug is the beatnik inspiration of long-time Tiki Farm contributing artist, Sam Gambino, after espresso-driven late night dribble paintings and watching films like The Bloody Brood!

The Poached Poet embodies all that is the beatnik artist and poaching his shrunken head was the final 'brooding' element necessary to capture his abstract and cool yet tragic vibrations!

Standing 6 1/4 inches high and holding 16 oz. of Kerouac Cognac, The Poached Poet is the perfect mug for enjoying a refreshment while reading deep poetry for enlightenment."
