How's the printing on the Gluck? Are the poems nicely spaced or have they crammed everything in?

Modern poetry is much better than ancient Greek poetry. You don't actually enjoy Pindar, and please stop pretending you do

Langston Hughes wrote about race and how he wanted to rape white women in vers libre, if you read him you probably are an idiot

Question [1]

When the old junk man Death
Comes to gather up our bodies
And toss them into the sack of oblivion
I wonder if he will find
The corpse of a white multi-millionaire
Worth more pennies of eternity
Than the black torso of
A negro cotton-picker?

“Muh Dick”
By: Langston Hughes

Does it dry up
like a raisin in the sun?
Or fester like a sore—
And then run?
Does it stink like rotten meat?
Or crust and sugar over—
like a syrupy sweet?

Maybe it just sags
like a heavy load.

Or does it explode?

More Langston

Exits

The sea is deep,
A knife is sharp,
And a poison acid burns--
But they all bring rest,
They all bring peace
For which. the tired
Soul yearns.
They all bring rest
In a nothingness
From where
No soul returns
