I am not much into reading poems actually.In fact i prefer reading song lyrics, I know some would say i am weird :) I have liked quite many poems though, especially those that dont rhyme. I particularly like Greek poets, especially the two awarded the Nobel price, Seferis and Elitis.

I don't think you're weird! To me, song lyrics are poetry too. My favourite poets include Adrienne Rich, Edna St. Vincent Millay and Audre Lorde. Their work really gets to me and inspires me. It's all really beautiful and powerful.

I must confess that I prefer to write it, than to read it... One person who I like and most also do, is the late but great Poe. How can you get any better of darker than that despondent dude?

i really love reading poems, in fact im into writing poems.. it's been my pasttime since i was a child.. i like to write anything that makes my heart speak it's own mind.. i let my heart say whatever it wants to say.. i dont put bounderies with poem writing.. i just like the idea of writing down the words that my lips cannot utter..
