Title: Poetry
Post by: Hairydude on July 08, 2008, 12:07:25 AM
hey there read some really good poems tonight from dale wimbrow and Phillip Larkin that I thought were fantastic, having been tuned into them from other people on different threads- can anybody else point me in a good direction to find good poets and poems???

I was pretty crap at English(as was v Bored) and never really got into it, but I love poems that rhyme and are in verse. I also love reading famous quotations from people through history for humour, for inspiration, for anything really and I'd like to widen my awareness to poems that can do the same.

Try Simon Armitage, I really liked Tyrannosaurus Rex Versus The Corduroy Kid. Also John Hegley.
