Two stars is a bit harsh - but at this point in time I am not a huge fan!
I definitely will have to come back to this book later when I can dedicate more time to it, and have developed some more poetic background. As a largely un-poetically literate person I found his poetry (although nice sounding) very inaccessible (which apparently was kind of his point) and as a harried college student trying to juggle too many things, I didn't have extra time to research where he was coming from.
So show more yeah, better luck next time. show less

An interesting take on how and why we (should) write poetry.
