I mostly like the beat poets, but also some of the romantics as well. I'd have to say some of my favorites are "Constantly risking absurdity" by Lawrence Ferlinghetti and Ozymandias by Percy Byshhe Shelley. However, one of my favorite tools is internal rhyme. I also like stuff like this Bob Dylan song (which is practically a poem):
Quote:
Darkness at the break of noon
Shadows even the silver spoon
The handmade blade, the child's balloon
Eclipses both the sun and moon
To understand you know too soon
There is no sense in trying.
