Life-affirming poetry from folklorist Steve Zeitlin, writer, poet, songwriter, ping pong player, cultural activist and Founding Director of City Lore, New York's center for urban folk culture now celebrating its 40th anniversary.

"Whitman may contain multitudes, but only Zeitlin puts on his poet's outfit every morning and says he's wearing the universe," writes Bob Holman, poet and producer of The United States of Poetry. "That's uni (one) plus verse (poem), which sums up his philosophy - life is nothing but one big ol' poem that everybody just keeps on writing. The emperor may have no clothes but remember - the poet is wearing the universe."
