This nearly made me cry

@AlbinusMakedonion I agree and disagree in equal measure. I love Buk, but for me he was a little TOO eager to dis poetry and culture, almost as if he was trying to create a certain image of 'hip coolness'. Heaney treats poetry as a vocation and makes no bones about it, I admire him completely for that.

@fucknbastard Well your Youtube name certainly fits you well!!!! haha! I'm glad poetry is lost on you, keeps the whole genre fresh and unique. Now, stop commenting on things you don't understand and get back to your mass-produced, general-public-loving, reality TV-advocating, dance music-filled mindlessness. ;-)

I don't like the poems of Heaney. I respect him, though, admirable man, yes. But he's one of the many injust and confusing selections of the Swedish Academy. So many great poets and writers out there... massive and hidden masters of language and letters that are so damned ignored.
Herbert is an amazing poet, and so the other Nobel Laureates: Milosz and Szymborska, love them!

Zbigniew Herbert was an influential Polish poet, essayist, drama writer, author of plays, and moralist. A member of the Polish resistance movement Home Army (AK) during World War II, he is one of the best known and the most translated post-war Polish writers. The Herberts probably had some English roots. The poets father, Bolesław (half-blooded Armenian), was a legionary in the Polish Legions during World War I and a defender of Lvov. Herberts grandfather was an English teacher.
