Walt & Waldo r0x0r5 j00r b0x0r5.
Not nearly as much as I hate Rod Mckuen.
He can listen to my warm ass.
YAWP!
I don't know about his poetry, but Whitman's candy certainly sucks nard. Fuck Whitman!

Ralph Waldo and I are best buddies. I even have a 1920's copy of his essays on my bed stand, mostly because it only cost 2.50$ on Ebay.
And I remember something about Waltie, but it amounts to nothing, who the fuck is he?
He was from Lawn Guyland, but loved Brooklyn.
He was gay.
He had a really awesome beard.
He published some godawful poems.
His grave reads -
My foothold is tenon'd and mortis'd in granite;
I laugh at what you call dissolution;
And I know the amplitude of time.
I dunno, I think I would have liked him.
Last night, I fell asleep in a closet.
But now you're out?
Oh, I'm so proud!
