does it have to be a poet?


in my opinion, american literature rather sucks in the poetry department.  there are some good authors however...nathanial hawthorne was writing about the same time as poe...and i find his stuff spookier than any of that drivel poe wrote.


but classically...my heart is with the brittish...more of a romantic period i guess...

H.P. Lovecraft:  He was best known for his horror stories, but has grown to becoem one of the most accredited gothic poets of all time.   You should have no problem finding information about him, and being that he has a VERY twisted life story he should make for a very interesting subject.

As did H.P. Lovecraft.  He far from sucked, however.  He's a bit too "dark" for me though.  I only know about him because this kid in my Bio class was telling me about him on a cig break one day and I was curious enough to look into it a bit.
