Poll question: Rimbaud - Genius, Degenerate or both? |
|
This poet was nihilist before Nietchze put pen to paper...with such catchy phrases as "Morality is a disease of the brain."
Soon after becoming famous as a prodigy poet, he quit writing altogher and became a slaver.
Well, at least he walked the talk...

1. He was a little bit country AND a little bit rock 'n' roll. |

I went with both. Some of his poetry is pretty good. At his worst, he's still interesting.
But he was definitely koo-koo for Cocoa Puffs, man. Definitely a different cat.
