Frank O'hara

Frank O'hara is a amazing creative individual that passed away to young. He was a writer that creative some of the most original works of poetry you have ever heard. The particular poem that was introduced in class what a poem he created about his favorite writers. The poem was describing his favorite writer committing suicide. The poem is very chilling, is vividly descries the action the individual took while committing suicide. It is very easy to visualize the individual and what he is doing as the poem goes on. In my opinion this is very likely to be one of the most chilling poems that i have ever heard. I am not a fan of such dark work, but I can appreciate how amazing he is at writing. The other thing that stuck out to me about this poem is that many people weren't used to writing or hearing people write in such a dark manner. At a first glance it isn't easy to understand what is going on in the scene. After reading over and over gain you begin to see the dark portrayal of the event. At the very end when i clearly began to understand the poem i began to feel chills. I cant imagine anyone reading this poem and not feeling something. I wonder what direction this particular writer would have taken his career if he wouldn't have died so tragically. He passed away in a accident before he reached the peak of his career.
