A Poetry Handbook

At 122 pp., this is one of the more succinct "how-to's" (for wannabe-poets) slash "how-it's-done's" (for wanna-understand-poets) out there.
This means the 5-star people will praise it for doing what good poetry should do -- delivering in an economy of words, while the 3-star people will hedge a bit and wish it went more in depth via more elaboration and a few more example poems.
Me, I can hear both sides, so I'll make like the Buddha and walk the middle way. Four stars it is!
