Baudelaire

I have to say, I am not really much of a Baudelaire fan, and yet, I don't mind his poetry. I can't say I agree with all of it, because he seems to be extreme. Boredom is negative, but I don't know if it's the cause of so many problems with the world. When I'm bored I don't think I cause that many problems. I'm just doing myself a diservice. However, his in your face style does make you think, which is important in literature and poetry. I can see how people would enjoy his work, but I'd take Wordsworth over him any day. I prefer the moving, natural, and descriptive words of Tinturn Abbey.
