Onto "Book Three" now. Went back and read the poetry in the beginning (as I had initially glossed over it) and found that it was decent enough, even humorous at times. I find that this (whole) book in particular is best experienced in short bursts, as there's a lot to take in and think on. Book Two was more erratic than the first, but still had some unique insight and questions--and levity--to impart.
