I won the LibraryThing 2012 Book Spine Poetry Contest with the above entry!

My goat ate its own legs,

Weird but true,

A moveable feast.

The idiot.

I got a lot of great comments throughout the contest and I have to say I owe it all to Borders going out of business last year, otherwise I would not have picked up a cheap copy of My Goat Ate Its Own Legs (it really is a good book, by an up-and-coming author… check it out).

And have a look at the other 373 entries – people really got into this contest. Book spine poetry is hot right now! A few highlights, the other winners…
