The meme king, obviously. At least until I read more and develop my own voice.

Stealing and copying was the way some of the best poets were taught their art. There's a reason that an Eliot or a Pope began by writing verse imitations of earlier poets.

The process of becoming a writer is a process of learning to imitate styles that are stronger than your own. The eventual result is always a synthesis of many styles, possibly with some innovation. But you cannot go from a weak and vulgar style to a strong and individual one by continuing to "bee yourself".

You should realize soon that you're going nowhere because every single upcoming male writer is going to be trying his best to imitate these hacks, to write a big doorstopper so that they can make up for their small peens.

Cummings, Joyce, Nietzsche, Gass.

I'd say Shakespeare, but that would be a little unrealistic.
