 * Delete. The editorial review at Amazon describes the author as: "Macklin Finley is a goof-ball who bounces around the country writing unsellable books of poems." . His 2008 35 page "book" "Hairy Engine with Wings" is already out of print. The 2007, 80 page "Pure Ether Funk" is ranked #3,779,516. They don't even give info on the 2009 "The Mutt". So I'm thinking non-notable WP:CREATIVE. Niteshift36 (talk) 14:18, 9 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete. I cannot find any coverage of this poet, and Niteshift's info supports my findings. Drmies (talk) 04:52, 13 July 2009 (UTC)
