Rimbaud - Genius, Degenerate or both?

[Taverner]

Poll question: Rimbaud - Genius, Degenerate or both?

This poet was nihilist before Nietchze put pen to paper...with such catchy phrases as "Morality is a disease of the brain."

Soon after becoming famous as a prodigy poet, he quit writing altogher and became a slaver.

Well, at least he walked the talk...

1. He was a little bit country AND a little bit rock 'n' roll.

I went with both. Some of his poetry is pretty good. At his worst, he's still interesting.

But he was definitely koo-koo for Cocoa Puffs, man. Definitely a different cat.
