Lil Ugly Mane takes it. Not in the "look how deep my lyrics are" way - that many here are mistaking for /lit/-ness. As with any great writer, he shows more than he tells: the life and isolation of a maniac drug dealer, schizo-typal attitude from a traumatic childhood, and discontent with all parts of society. He does all this with wordplay that would may make Joyce moan: i.e "Ballin on my mind Kareem abdulla oblangada"

"Your words are empty hollow bleatings
Of a mental crutch
They're open-festered indigestion
With a velvet touch
An ether-eating Eskimo
Would gag upon your sight
Convulsed into oblivion
From laughter or from fright
A coma with a swee t aroma
Is your only dream
Malignant with the misconception
That a grunt can gleam
Your lichen-covered corpuscles
Are filthy to my fist
Infection is your finest flower
Mildewed in the mist."

Shadows gather poisoned henna for the flesh

Carven deep upon the church doors of the damned

>Robert: "Yeah, just once briefly. There was this Beat Generation poet in San Francisco named Michael McClure who had put on this like weird, avant-garde play in the mid '60s. He was well known. I forget what the exact circumstances were, but he brought Jim Morrison over to my house one day. I think I was still living with Dana at the time, but I don’t remember if she was there. S. Clay Wilson was there. But Morrison, he seemed really over the hill by then. It wasn’t too long before he died. He just seemed like a kind of puffy-looking, overweight guy who was burned-out from too many drugs. He just sat in the corner kind of mumbling. [laughs]

>"He was wearing this greasy, suede jacket with that fringe hanging off the sleeves. He had greasy, long hair. He did not look like the adonis that you saw in the photos a couple years before. But you know, that kind of worship that he received, when you’re young, it’s really hard to survive intact. He probably took too many drugs, but I don’t know. I don’t know what his problem was. He didn’t seem brilliant or anything to me. He didn’t have any insight or anything interesting to say. He just seemed like the typical hippie you would see on Haight Street at that time, mumbling about the drugs and shit, ‘Yeah man, I grooved on 600 mikes the other night, man.’” [laughs at his impersonation of a Haight Street hippie]."
