Forgive me if he's already been mentioned, but Shel
Silverstein seems the obvious choice here. He's best know for
writing hundreds of poems for children, but he probably wrote
twice as many for adults--and its often difficult to tell
which piece was written for which audience. He's dark, dark,
dark...heck, anyone who'd write a poems entitled "Someone Ate
the Baby"
(when he recorded this one, he belched at the end of it)
probably has some issues.
