Burroughs, was an American novelist, essayist, more... social critic, painter and spoken word performer. Much of Burroughs' work is semi-autobiographical, drawn from his experiences as an opiate addict, a condition that marked the last fifty years of his life.

Try the later work of the 80s: "The Western Lands," for example. It's much more accessible than his early work.

Sorry lialyss - After he 'accidently' shot his wifes head off when he was high on heroin, I couldn't quite appreciate his work anymore.

Sorry Gypsyrose188... I have to say that it doesn't suprise me that you do not like WB's work. It seems that your basic grasp of the english language is so poor that you cannot compose a literate post. Considering that WB shot his wife in 1951 then your post would seem to indicate that you went off WB at this time. This would point to you having been born in the thirties. Are you in fact seventy years old?
There is another ... ( 1 month ago by fuckacronym)
There is another problem with this your statement, Burroughs was not published untill 1953 so unless you are actually secretly Ginsberg or Kerouac then I very much doubt that you ever had the oppourtunity to appreciate his work before he 'accidently shot his wife's head off'.
What seems much more likely to me is that you read some burroughs recently couldn't appreaciate it and so decided that the only reasoned response was to disparage him from the safety of your keyboard.
Also with regards ... ( 1 month ago by fuckacronym)
Also with regards to your earlier comment about poetry for pretentious idiots... the extract that WB reads in the above vodeo are taken from what I like to call 'novels' and hence is not poetry at all.
Thankyou and good night.

This was in point ... ( 1 month ago by fuckacronym)
This was in point of fact an oblique reference to Burroughs' writing style, which throws away traditional sentence structure and grammer in favour of style. I felt that in this instance, gypsyrose deserved the more insulting 'you' as opposed to the, I feel more formal 'your'.
Which is of course a load of BS to camoflague what was an honest error. Although if you want to get technical; my last sentence should read 'hence ARE not'. An oversight I believe in you marking.

I've gotta agree with your first sentence, gypsyrose. I think this yo-yo is unmitigated proof that, with the right promotion, you can get not a small number of dimwits to drop to their knees and sing praises for virtually anybody/thing.
