Popular #YouTuber Adam the Woo (aka David Adam Williams) has passed away aged fifty-one. Witty and warm and passionate about #Americana, Adam’s videos have inspired many, including vlogger Jacob Krejci ( #TheCarpetBagger ), whose work my collection “American Geegaws” is inspired by and based in.

I loved Adam’s work, and wanted to honor him and his influence on the collection and so included him in this poem. I was going to send him a copy of the book when it became available.

Adam’s channel can be accessed here: https://www.youtube.com/user/TheDailyWoo
