All about Peotry

LA Theater Works presents the play Mimi's Guide.
The play shed a very different light to the anti-war movement: how those who protested the war by not going to the war were actually hypercritical, how a Vietnam young man fights to keep his name, and how poetry transformed human beings.
It's not the established poets, but those who truly love poetry and got moved by it, that are changing the world, and making it a better place.
