The shithouse poet.
To me, it's funny, honest, real.
They make us smile, but never let others know we did.
And some of the best I've seen, are at bike rallies. Miami, Laconia, Stugis and even local rallies.
But then, what do I know !

Charles Baudelaire - just knocks me down
and also a Polish Nobel Prize winner Wisława Szymborska - light and unforced but straight to the point - hmm, just like good parfum should be

I LOVE Emily Dickinson, I know a lot of her stuff is raw, but is the rawness that intrigues me because it is real, one of my favourites is I felt a funeral in my brain, does anyone else like her?
I FELT a funeral in my brain,
And mourners, to and fro,
Kept treading, treading, till it seemed
That sense was breaking through.
And when they all were seated,
A service like a drum
Kept beating, beating, till I thought
My mind was going numb.
And then I heard them lift a box,
And creak across my soul
With those same boots of lead, again.
Then space began to toll
As all the heavens were a bell,
And Being but an ear,
And I and silence some strange race,
Wrecked, solitary, here.

I am a fan of Emily Dickinson as well, " because i could not stop for death" is one of my favorites of hers.

I don't know it,
but my feet show it.
Because they're longfellows.

Edna St. Vincent Millay. She hypnotically illustrates the sometimes-exquisite battle between fantasy and reality. Liberation and captivity.

I meant from Pam, Bat.I have too many favorites, here are a few poets off the top of my head that I like, all different. Poetry is an a acquired taste from my point of view. Reading poetry is something you have to want to do. It often requires contemplation and like good songs, you want to read good poetry over and over. I consider music lyrics poetry

Wilfred Owen. Beautiful, poignant, truthful poetry from World War I. Tragically, he was killed in the final days of the war, but his writing lives on. Also, T.S. Eliot, especially The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock. Oh, and of course, Bob Dylan.
