Today's Poem : The Secret Lives of Gloomy Writers

Alexander Solzhenitsyn
sure knew how to get the beats in!
He liked Hip Hop, he liked Soul,
And stayed up late
to Rock' n' Roll.


Jean Paul Sartre, Franzis Kafka
Stagger through the morning after:
When other people crash and yawn,
They'll party on until the dawn..


When Sylvia Plath's behind the mike,
You can shake your booty all you like,
Then just 'round midnight
 Old Ted Hughes
 Will melt the soles of your blue suede shoes...


It's the secret lives of Gloomy Writers
Come on down and wave your lighters!
