Literal to the literary...er...Rimbaud?

EDIT: Is there some action hero called Rambo? If so this may not be a flippant stab, but in fact the right answer. Which would be quite alarming.

EDIT: Lord above. There is.

You may be right, Anguirel. The name sounds like Rambo, it was between Garner and Gibson and appearently you (being young) don't know about him!! I'm sorry but I am laughing hysterically right now.

I really wish I were young, and therefore didn't have to know about him.

An action hero, unlikely as it sounds: Is indeed our Perilous Poet..... I would point out that I am not a Stallone fan but as Anguirel's Wikipedia article points out the name passed into the wider culture.... Nevertheless it seems that Baudelaire remains the preferred French Romantic poet of the downs....

Over to you Maestro Fenriso....
