This time of some of my favorite poems in the WHOLE WORLD (not in any particular order).

You don't have to read them. But I highly recommend you do. Because they are beautiful things. I REALLY, REALLY recommend all of Theodore Roethke. He is my newest favorite poet. Also, Marge Piercy's poem is the neatest poem about womanhood, EVER. So, here

Iron Maiden got me into Samuel Taylor Coleridge - 'Rime of the Ancient Mariner' is a great poem

**now I'm hearing Pink Floyd**
I've got a little black book with my poems in
Got a bag with a toothbrush and a comb in
When I'm a good dog, they sometimes throw me a bone in

That sounds terribly hawt. So, I am going to try to come down to the L.A. area at the end of the year for a week-long visit. Will you still be down there then?

and then i recited a few more lines. done deal yo. :D
