Dario Fo & Franca Rame Book

"You may not be able to earn a living exclusively as a poet or writer, but if you persist, work hard and nurture your talent; it is almost guaranteed that you will earn a life." that's how the poet's handbook begins. i think it may be just a person's handbook, how to expand beyond yourself, how to seek peace, how to love nature and unify yourself with things that are real. his poetry is intense, but it keeps your attention. i loved how so many of these were written for a special occasion or to celebrate someone-- good on their own, but that much more meaningful when you imagined the context in which these words were read.
