Answer
All of mine even though they are mostly prosebrbrThis is another subject where there are too many answers...brbrI like everything Rike ever wrotebrCarrollbrSextonbrPlathbrCranebrCummingsbrLowellbrbrin other words all of the beat or confessionalexpiremental poets.brbrDantebrrosettibrbrowningbrByronbrShelleybrbrbrGod, I could go on for days... Just pick anything by any of them and I will nod if you ask me if it is my favorite.brbrI do love The Panther. By Rilke though... It is a long time favorite of mine.brbrHis vision, from the constantly passing bars,brhas grown so weary that it cannot holdbranything else. It seems to him there arebra thousand bars, and behind the bars, no world.brbrAs he paces in cramped circles, over and over,brthe movement of his powerful soft stridesbris like a ritual dance around a centerbrin which a mighty will stands paralyzed.brbrOnly at times, the curtain of the pupilsbrlifts, quietly. An image enters in,brrushes down through the tense, arrested muscles,brplunges into the heart and is gone.
