Yeah not sure why these other people are worshipping NT poets. I here by grant you
membership in the Aspie Poet's Club Donkey. Sorry guys we need members who can see
new and modern Poets. Donkey and Me could train a bird to list a dozen well known
dead poets.


You could also train it to list a dozen of well known new poets. Though I should listen to your infinite wisdom since evidently you built a time machine, earned a PHd, and gave all the listed poets a psychological exam. You are most talented.


Yeah and when I meet Poe we partied for weeks. We were so screwed up I forget which
lines in his poems I wrote :)

My favorite poet is T.S. Eliot but I am a close second...he was more brilliant but I understand my own alot better...Also like Bob Dillion,Walt Whittman,and (gasp) Sylvia Plath...alot of prose writters have lines of poetry in their writting that get lodged in my brain....but I love sing-song poetry and thats how I write(lot easier to memorize...I have horrid memery)

weren't you? Admit it!

Well I was not being an a$$. In the universe in which Xanadu was finished it inspired
Hitler to focus on his painting instead of politics. Which then lead to Germany making
the first A-Bomb in 1942. Which all ended in a total nuclear holocaust in 1957.

If you'll note my post, W.B. Yeats had High-functioning Autism. Also his brother, Jack B. Yeats, who was a painter like their father, was an Aspie.

I never let the facts get in the way of humor. But to be honest I think my real motivation
is I not a fan poems or any fiction for that matter(unless I generate it then it rocks!).

The only poet I'm interested in (in any major degree) is Dante Aligheri, and in particular, Inferno. C'mon, the line about the Malebranche's leader, Malacoda giving them a nice send-off?
...And he made a bugle with his arse. That's one of the few moments that make the Divine Comedy a modern comedy.
