Enjoy La Rosa's celebration and unique spin of the classics, as he pays homage to Dickinson, Whitman, Yeats, Frost, Plath, Keats, Pound, Williams and more. I have eaten the bacon that was in the fridge ... Readers will enjoy the poet's resurrection of famous poems as he uses them as springboards to tackle today's pop culture and politics. And to wrap it up, he ends with a brief story about Chinese and American writers, including Allen Ginsberg and Annie Dillard, whom La Rosa leads through Disneyland.
