    <body><![CDATA[Though I could do without all of the poems about writing poems (barf), and I would definitely rearrange the sequence so as to put some space between pieces about the same thing... I really enjoyed this book.  Nothing flashy, just some solid observation and (for the most part) tight lines.  Pastan's voice keeps it pretty real--which I dug, although I can see why some readers would find the lack of poetic &quot;jazz hands&quot; boring.]]></body>
