who do you like? i quite enjoy John Wieners, Philip Lamantia and (as you can see) Peter Orlovsky, (as well as the obvious Ginsberg, Burroughs..not really poet, but writer... whatever) any writers/poets/artists you like fromt his era?

I would say burroughs is a better writer than kerouac but I could see why kerouac would be way on top. I really liked junky by burrough's. My favorite poet is ginsberg.

I like Gregory Corso's self-penned epitaph:
Spirit is Life It flows thru the death of me endlessly like a river unafraid of becoming the sea

I only recently got into poetry itself, so this may be an obvious choice, since I haven't delved too deep into it yet, but I like Saul Williams... any other suggestions for beginners?

I didn't like Naked Lunch. A waste of time.
Anyway, Kerouac and Ginsberg are pretty much the best of the beats. I would add Gary Snyder, but I haven't read enough to really say. |

Bradley Hathaway is the worst poet ever. I saw him live Friday night and was thoroughly pissed off.
