what do you think of him, /lit/?
>>25238417If he gets the kids into poetry, cool. I enjoyed the one about lpromenade. promenades.
Essentially a writer for very young people.
>>25238510actually it's>A favorite between the ages of 10 and 15, and thereafter.
>>25238417Rimjob?
>>25238513A Season in Hell. WonderfulOne would like to have filmed him as the infernal bridegroom getting topped by Paul Verlaine.
>>25238542>Francophile is into gay shitIn other news, the sky is blue today.
>>25238543Define “blue”
>>25238573A Rimbaudian approach? Alright.>Hon hon hon, sky eez bloo >Regardless of time of day, poo emanates from my rendezvous >I traverse to coastal lands >It is not French to wash your hands
>>25238583OHOHOHO OUI OUI HON HON!!!!
>>25238417never read him. where should I start?
>>25238583Could have taken on the “Vowels”, but don’t expect that from a /lit/tard AD mmxxvi.
>>25238601Rimbo seems to be less widely read here these days, unfortunate
>>25238644/lit/ards can't into poetry
>>25238597A Season in Hell. Ashbery's translation of Illuminations is also excellent. >>25238417I was REALLY into him when I was 14 or 15. Rereading him as an adult, my passion's definitely cooled off a bit, but still, simply unfair that someone could write like that before they turned 20
>>25238601Came to bitch about exactly this. Also what's the deal with littards trying to act cool and saying Rimjaubd is for kids? Like you guys could approach the depth he had at 16 years old, lmao.What's next, calling Baudelaire simply edgy?
I want to bang him
>>25238417lil faggot
>>25239188>>25239825Yes yes but he’s also a skilled poet you know fellers
>>25238417I'd top him... wait what was the question?
>>25238417I'm utterly fascinated with his story. I'd love to find more like him. Young literary prodigies with active intellectual lives who one day just stopped. The effect is so complete that some people genuinely think Rimbaud died young like Ducasse and Chatterton.
