"I love you as certain dark things are to be loved, in secret, between the shadow and the soul." -- Pablo Neruda (Sonet XVII)

  I'm going to say it...  Neruda's poetry is sexy.  I get little shivers down my spine when I read it.  He grasps language like no other.  He envokes all the senses through the written word.  I love it.  And the only way to truly read it is aloud.  It's like Shakespeare, the writing sounds so much better aloud.
