Neil Hilborn is pretty decent, but I'm not sure if it's what you're looking for.

I really like Mexican modern poets. But you really need to choose who you read. Most of these people don't write for a living so they do it because they really feel it.

is that that fucking ocd slam dude

>>8089531
Yeah. That one is shit, but he also has some really good ones. The ones he performs are never as good as his others.

It's because the best minds of our generation are starving, hysterical and naked.

And were expelled from the academies for crazy and publishing obscene odes on the windows of the skull.

All joking aside though SJWism has an entire lost generation of intellectuals to answer for

Who are some of these poets you're talking about, could you give some examples? Since you know so much and I'm not quite familiar with the poetry you mention.

>>8089475
ashbery is shit though

the alt lits, spearheaded by mira Gonzalez, tao lin, and steve roddenbuck, African American poets like Amari Baraka, frank marshal davis, Dudley randall, jay wright, Margaret walker (this could go on forever really), and feminist poets who've ventured beyond slam, like patricia lockwood (http://www.nytimes.com/2014/06/01/magazine/the-smutty-metaphor-queen-of-lawrence-kansas.html?_r=0) and throngs of other poets whos names I didn't care to remember.

Fucking kill yourself holy shit Neil Hilborne is a tryhard quirky hack for creative writing majors to reference to pretend they're aware of contemporary poetry between marathoning Dr. Who and playing Magic The Gathering.

You don't sound snobbish, most of /lit/ refuses to admit the Beats had value.

Try these:

>Michael Dickman
