Poetry saved my life. I owe my entire existence up to this point to my own determination to make myself into a true poet. Being a poet means more than just writing poetry. Any idiot can make rhymes (they call them rappers). A true poet lives first and the poetry is the expression of that living. My favorite poets are Arthur Rimbaud, Jim Morrison, William Blake, Charles Baudelaire, Allen Ginsberg and Al Purdy. Please check out my website www.thedinandmaw.piczo.com
