The eBay poet laureate

July 20th, 2009 by Leave a reply »

According to seller slimypebblecollege, he’s both “the eBay Poet Laureate and next Bukowski.” Because clearly, what the world needs now is another Bukowski.

“My style is a combo of Dr. Seuss, Woody Guthrie, and Charles Bukowski with a dash of Sylvia Plath and a twist of Bill Knott (at least that is what Al N. Ginsberg told me once),” he says.

In case you buy his claim, you can bid on one of his poems and he will send it to you in the mail. In more flush times, some might pay $5 for that description alone, but so far with 8 bids and a handful of hours left to go, the standing price is 55 cents.
