    Today it is John Keats. I love absolutely anything by Keats. The Odes, and La Belle Dame Sans Merci especially.

    Had you asked me last month I would have said Sylvia Plath, bearing in mind the piece "Daddy."

    Had you asked me the month before I would have said T.S. Elliott, and my favourite is "The Hollow Men".

    Alright. Let's stick with Keats and I promise I won't type anything more.

    i don't like my last name either! everyone has a hard time saying it and if you just break it down it's easy. sounds exactly the way it's spelled and even worst we had this thing at the school the A honor roll and they read everyone name off and my teach who has had me the entire second semester read my last name wrong!! and she didn't notice my class president had to tell her! and the news papers never get it right either. also my first name is tricky for everyone my 8th grade science teacher always had to ask how to spell, never did he get it write, my art teacher too and i was his favorite student. ha we had this name test in my english class once and someone spelled my name "Jaclime" i guess i'm part lime but spelling didn't count in the test.

    as for favorite poets: Bob Shank, Lisa Teller, Cheryl Costello-Forshey, most of my favorite poets come from chicken soup books and this site, there are still MANY more.

    Tupac was seen by some as a common street thug who glorified violence, drugs, and the disrespect of women. Those people never read his poetry or really listened to his underlying messages. TuPac spoke to a generation of people by giving day by day accounts of everyday life in the ghetto. He spoke from his experiences, and other people were able to relate. Not many people realize that he was a creative genius, they figured he was just trying to make a profit from commercializing the ghetto struggle. In reality, he just wanted people to know that just because everything wasn't peaches and cream in the hood, didn't mean you couldn't escape the your living hell to live on earth's heavenly paradise. Tupac was wise beyond his years, and he will always be one of the greatest poets.

    TS Eliot (by the way, we share the same birthday, although I was born years later), WH Auden, John Donne (one of the best, without doubt), Shakespeare, Chaucer, Tagore, Gibran, Neruda, Bécquer. There are just so many!
