I love Frank O'Hara. He may be one of my favorite poets from the post-modernist era. I love how he isn't as dark and gloomy as the other poets during this time period.

This was a great, small collection of poems that is easily read very quickly.

"And the tranquil hills, & gin, look like a drag and somehow a dog has taken itself & its tail considerably away into the mountains or sea or sky, leaving behind: me, wag. If you don’t like those lines, you probably won’t like these poems, and I probably won’t like you."

"It’s one of the first poems I memorized for recitation, and when said aloud it’s especially powerful. The dichotomy of the carefree joy and the seething rage rubbing against one another stanza by stanza always felt — and continues to feel — like the perfect maddening definition of the human experience"
