Firstly, you can navigate this site by means of the home page and the subsequent section menus. But there are also additional tools which should assist you in navigating this site:

the site chronology listing all changes ever made to this site, listed in a backwards chronological order to help you find out what has changed since a previous visit of yours. A shortened version of the chronology can be found directly on the home page in the 'What's New' pane at the right-hand side.

each section has their own pages detailing chronological and thematic ordering principles

Should you still have problems finding the desired content, please feel free to contact me.

Q	Why are some poems given an R rating?
A	Some of my poems have rather explicit contents and/or language, so I chose to give them an R rating to indicate this to a possible reader - so that you'll be more or less prepared for what awaits you. If you're an innocent minor, ask a parent; if you're a worried parent, explain it to your kid. I'm in no way affiliated with any rating agency, this rating has been given completely voluntarily.

Q	How often is this site updated?
A	This site is updated on a wanna-do-basis. It's a reflection of my personal interests and spare time. You can expect regular updates, but I reserve the right to be subjected to writer's block.

Q	What's your affiliation with Amazon?
A	I'm an amazon.com associate, meaning, that if you get to amazon.com by clicking on a link on my site either to Amazon's main page or to individual items, and make a purchase, I get a small comission fee.
