Allen Ginsburg is one of my favorites. His Poems "America" and "Death to Van Goh's Ear" are my favorite. when i red this i was gonna write alen ginsberg, then i saw u already had it here! some of his stuff is a little questionable, tho, likethe except from "howl" that starts..." i saw the greatest minds of my generation something something..." lol i remember daria liked allen ginsburgh too, she read to that excerot frmo "howl" to an old lady one episode and the lady got all freaked out.
Another great poet is Octavio Paz. I read his stuff because he was mentioned a lot in the societiy's literature, because he's a historian also. I read some of his works from "sunstone", which are really good, some reflect mildy hindu sanskrit poetry.
oh man we did months on him in my spanish lit
I read thia book by him, "In Light of India", and there was a a rather large section on Hindu erotic sanskrit poetry. It was pretty interesting, to saythe least. lol i dont reccomend it. But the book altogether is really good. He's an awesome writer. What did u read of his?
I remember one: A la orilla del mundo
to the edge of the world? don't know if i read it or not
Another good Spanish author is Pablo Neruda. One of his poems inspired the Goo Goo Dolls' "Gutterflower" album title.
I remember that Daria episode. If Daria likes it..then it must be good!
