154: Jonathan GNO White breaks up

<p>GNO is a poet who not long ago put out a collection titled "<a href= "https://twitter.com/TheArtInspired1/status/1514077934105108483">101 Break Up Poems</a>." In this <em>EarBurner</em>, he explains why he nicknamed himself GNO (pronounced "Gino"), what happened when he told his mom Prince wasn't a girl, and how poetry can save young people's lives. Oh, also, he tells the story about how he wound up doing a McDonald's commercial for the Filet-O-Fish. (If you're reading these words in time for it, you can catch GNO at a poetry-and-cocktails <a href= "https://dallasinstitute.org/lyric-hour/">gig</a> on 2/10/23 at the Dallas Institute, where he'll read a selection of his break-up poems.)</p>
