"Manifesto" and "The Making of a Marginal Farm"

I believe both pieces have the same purpose: asking the audience to escape their life routine and do something new. To believe that all it matters in this life is not money and that life have to be enjoyed to the fullness.
I did not like "Manifesto" as much as "The Making of a Marginal Farm" because for me it was harder to understand the poem. In a poem, words take different meanings and if it is not interpreted as the author feels, then it looses its meaning. However, I feel that I understand ""The Making of a Marginal Farm" more, and hence I like it more. In this piece, he uses common languages and makes it easier to spread his purpose. Also, he talked about his own experience and that intrigued the readers as well.
