Russian Futurist poet
Vladimir Vladimirovich Mayakovsky was a total badass, and he does a nice job recuperating the pervasive "wussy boy" image of poets. The dude started writing poetry in PRISON after he was arrested for being a political upstart and ne'er do well! And he wrote a poem called "
A Cloud in Trousers," which we assume is totally racy. When we scanned it for the sexy parts we found this:
"You would not recognize me now:
a bulging bulk of sinews,
groaning,
and writhing,
What can such a clod desire?
Though a clod, many things!"
Ooooh Mayakovsky! Even though you were already pretty hot, now we know what you
really looked like on the inside!
