Poetry Of the Deed - Frank Turner

Poetry Of the Deed - Frank Turner
3:25
Poetry Of the Deed, 2009
Written by Frank Turner

Title trax!

Carpe diem, boys!  Rip up your books!  "Put your Baudelaire away / And come outside and play."  Or, "Enough with words and with technical theses / Let's grab life by the throat and then live it to pieces."  The Poet Laureate of DIY-anarcho-folk-punk tells us to burn bright before the all-too-brief light dies out.  Turner is a doer, an exhorter, a peacemaker and a connector.  But foremost a brilliant songwriter.
