>normies

You aren't on /r9k/.
I am sexually active and have an active social life. Blake is my favorite poet.

Road Not Taken is a go-to for DUDE DEEP LMAO
I can recite 5 odes from Keats which also seems to impress lots of normalfags, because it rhymes so well

That blue bird one from bukowski

If you're going for the rhyming meme, go for Donne.

Op, I just memorized this one by Gilbert, and I imagine it will impress pseuds and punks well.

When the King of Siam disliked a courtier
He gave him a beautiful white elephant
The miracle beast deserved such ritual
That to care for him properly meant ruin
Yet to care him improperly was worse
It appears the gift could not be refused

Just pronounce courtier correctly

Nah scrap this and go for the the Stevens blackbird one.

Used that one on my now ex
Approved.

>Road Not Taken
fucking robert frost is so damn good. I don't even into poetry and I like his stuff.

Point proven

Anything by Poe that isn't the raven.

You all are thinking too obscure. To impress a normie you need to in some way have them be able to relate. If you're too far out there then they won't feel anything towards it. You need to be relatable while highbrow.

Frost is a good idea though.

Lol. Excellent post.

Neither Poe nor Frost or highbrow, no matter how hidden Bloom claims old Bobby to be.

Girls like Neruda

Get this

Any old poetry is highbrow to normies.

Ning nang nong by Spike Miligan

wallace stevens, ts eliot, andrew marvell

In what social settings would you even be able to recite a poem, in its entirety? Isn't it rather pseud?

kill normals // praise gnon

>Hey user what are you into?
>Oh, y'know. A bit of hiking, the gym... I like poetry too
>Oh really! What kind of poetry
>My favourite poem is Free Verse Wank by [whatever permavirgin modernist shat it out]
>I haven't hear that/ I love that
>[If the latter just abort, in case they're pseuds and feel intimidated, but if the former just lead into reciting it. Only do a couple lines. Reading the whole thing is autistic unless it's a really short poem, like maybe a sonnet.]
>Wowie Zowie user! I'm wet as a whistle. You sounds like a man with a monster schlong. Let's go upstairs so you can give me a good dicking

Or similar scenarios.

I saw the best minds of my generation destroyed by madness, starving hysterical naked,

Yeah I can imagine this going over well. Howl at least, maybe Supermarket in California. Not sure about his other stuff

Shakespeare's Sonnet 18

She Walks in Beauty. Real vaginal humidifier.
Bonus points if they haven't seen Dead Poets Society.

my diary desu

love song of j alfred prufrock

good poem, though

Ozymandias

really makes you think

The Second Coming

i keep reciting that bit about" what rough beast comes slouching toward Bethlehem to be born"
whenever I hear that Hillary is leading in the polls

>it rhymes so well
zhe Raven by Poe. It's very, very easy to remember, but it impresses any [Spoiler]normies [/Spoiler] that you're able to remember 22 (or whatever it is) stanzas on end.

i rather wonder what poems impress robors from /r9k/

To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day
To the last syllable of recorded time,
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle! 2380
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage
And then is heard no more: it is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.

>Sonnet 18

The best part is that it's a legitimately top tier poem that most will understand only on a superficial level.

>what is babby's first sonnet

>2380

>what is babby's first sonnet

It is, yet how does this diminish its quality?

pound probably

Anything by Drake.

Yesterday, upon the stair,
I met a man who wasn't there.
He wasn't there again today,
I wish, I wish he'd go away...

Crawling in my skin
These wounds, they will not heal
Fear is how I fall
Confusing what is real

There's something inside me that pulls beneath the surface
Consuming, confusing
This lack of self control I fear is never ending
Controlling
I can't seem
To find myself again
My walls are closing in
(Without a sense of confidence I'm convinced
That there's just too much pressure to take)
I've felt this way before
So insecure

Crawling in my skin
These wounds, they will not heal
Fear is how I fall
Confusing what is real

Discomfort, endlessly has pulled itself upon me
Distracting, reacting
Against my will I stand beside my own reflection
It's haunting how I can't seem

To find myself again
My walls are closing in
(Without a sense of confidence I'm convinced
That there's just too much pressure to take)
I've felt this way before
So insecure

Crawling in my skin
These wounds, they will not heal
Fear is how I fall
Confusing what is real

Crawling in my skin
These wounds, they will not heal
Fear is how I fall
Confusing, confusing what is real

There's something inside me that pulls beneath the surface
Consuming (confusing what is real)
This lack of self control I fear is never ending
Controlling (confusing what is real)

Brilliant

You're a normie, we're all normies, you cock.
