Poetry. Not so much recipes as proclamations, not descriptions but prescriptions, this collection of poems by Craig Czury is a compendium of the possibilities of and for poetry that exist in the real world. Using the idea of "write a poem" as an extensible metaphor for "live a life in which it is possible", this book may teach you all you need to know about finding poetry in the daily, and trickstering those around you into seeing it, as well.
