I just did a report on how Ben Gibbard is a modern Shakespeare. What do you think? I feel like his lyrics speak to people in a more meaningful way than any poet today even though he doesn't technically write poems he writes song lyrics.

I am thinking it's a sign that the freckles
In our eyes are mirror images and when
We kiss they're perfectly aligned
And I have to speculate that God himself
Did make us into corresponding shapes like
Puzzle pieces from the clay

Seriously beautiful.
