Bukowski, Ginsberg, Sexton, Creeley, Plath, Orlovsky primarily in the poetry world. I like weird stuff. I have a lot of books on criticism that I've half read. Always good is the bloody, strange or non-bloody, strange. Anything that piques the interest level. Now I will be reading more Bizarro fiction. It's the wave of the future!
