Grade-A nut job, that's me!
You are William Blake! Wow. I'm impressed. Not
only are you a self-made artist and poet, but
you've suddenly become a very trendy guy to
like. It's not that we doubt that you have all
your marbles, it's just that we're not quite
sure what you did with them to come up with
those terrifying theological visions. The
people of your time were nowhere near as
forgiving as that, and all your neighbors
thought you were a grade-A nut job. But we
love you, so rest happy.
Which Major Romantic Poet Would You Be (if You Were a Major Romantic Poet)?

The 2nd time I took it I was Blake too! Very impressive, Steve.
My wife wrote Frakenstein!
You are Percy Bysshe Shelley! Famous for your dreamy abstraction and your quirky verse, you're the model "sensitive poet." A vegetarian socialist with great personal charm and a definite way with the love poem, you remain an idol for female readers. There are dozens of cute anecdotes about you, and I love you.
Woo hoo!
"You're John Keats! You were born poor, trained to be a doctor, and then decided you wanted to be a poet. You threw yourself into poetry with great dedication. You're very nice and extremely dedicated to your art. You write great letters and sexy poetry. It's amazing how much you got done in your short lifetime."
Hear time's wing-ed chariot coming for me? Better get busy being nicer, more dedicated, and crank out some way sexy poetry. *koff
Apparently I'm Samuel Taylor Coleridge. And if I were a Stooge I guess I'd be Shemp.
Yeah, I knew that.
You are George Gordon, Lord Byron! The prototypical bad boy, you'll sleep with anything that can give consent and maybe even a few things that can't or won't. Your ethics could use some work (nine year old girls?), but outside of the sex question, you're a grand partier and the bipolar, shady hero of your own story. The wittiest of the Romantics, you're mad, bad and dangerous to know. Scandalous!
Watching LOST got you all wound up there, didn't it Dott? ;)
Yes, Ms. Hellion. That and being the parent of wayward teenagers.
