	The randy rhymer - Salon
		Then Dennis, who looks like Jerry Garcia if Jerry Garcia had had a permanently scarring encounter with an electric socket, launched into a fevered reading of "To a Beautiful Lady of a Certain Age," his brown spectacles just barely hanging on to his bearded and rapidly bobbing face.
		Dennis had built up quite a head of steam by the third stanza, which begins, "Lady this is all in vain/ Youth can never come again." But then he really let loose: "NIP AND TUCK 'TIL CRACK OF DOOM!" he thundered.
		But what made Dennis famous -- besides his public bout with crack addiction, reports of his multiple simultaneous girlfriends, and his 1996 admission to the Guardian that he preferred non-penetrative sex -- was his popularization of toned-down skin rags aimed at advertiser-friendly young men.

		Listen: Felix Dennis -- the former hippie, former jailbird, former aficionado of crack cocaine who publishes the wildly successful men's magazine Maxim -- is about to launch into another of his hilariously irreverent rants.
		Dennis was as fond of dope, sex and rock-and-roll as the other Oz editors, but he also immersed himself in the details of publishing -- advertising, distributing, printing.
		Dennis is, by all accounts, a very generous man. He takes care of his old friends who have fallen on hard times and serves as a benevolent godfather to a couple dozen of his friends' children.

	The wine may be free but the verse is not / Maxim publisher Felix Dennis has found the time to rhyme
		Dennis makes an easy target, and many people have taken the bait: He's an eccentric millionaire, a former crack addict, the publisher of magazines of dubious taste (Maxim and Stuff).
		Dennis' poems rhyme, in an era in which serious poets are expected to write in free verse.
		Dennis' stature may be represented in his company's unofficial nickname, which he memorialized in verse as "The Bearded Dwarf." That poem tells how his crew sails for the love of mocking the Royal Navy -- much as Maxim ridicules Esquire.

		He first gained notoriety as one of the editors of the 60s satirical magazine, Oz, and as such was prosecuted for obscenity in an infamous trial in 1971 (he was subsequently acquitted at the High Court of Appeal).
		Dennis's voice (described by one critic as a cross between Carl Sandburg and Winston Churchill) is the perfect vehicle for his work, reciting with roistering energy one minute, with sinister resonance the next - this is a larynx that's been lived in.
		In the tradition of Adrian Mitchell and Charles Causley, Dennis is proud to be popular and his verse, with its "impish delight in all forms of human desire," (Folio) and celebration of traditional metre and rhyme has connected with a receptive readership, who have found in Dennis "a twenty first century Kipling" (Tom Wolfe).

		But Maxim has done something far more significant than just generate lots of buzz in its first two years in the United States: It has roared past a slew of second-tier men's titles to position itself as a challenger to the giants of the category, including the Conde Nast uggernaut GQ and Hearst's venerable Esquire.
		Dennis, for his part, says he expects Maxim to ultimately be a $50 million title.
