Poetic Obituaries: During his life, [Vincent] Ferrini

published more than 30 volumes of poetry, including an autobiography written largely in verse and volumes of verse that seem more political and social criticism than poetry.

At his death, another volume, "Invisible Skin," is being prepared for publication in the spring, [his daughter] Sheila said.

Ferrini's blurring of the distinction between poetry and prose was intentional, [Peter] Anastas, a former Times columnist, insisted yesterday.
