Intense looking dude or not, the man wrote "A Boy Named Sue." I'll show up for anything that can possibly become a Shel Silverstein appreciation post.

A song, actually. Silverstein wrote the Johnny Cash song "A Boy Named Sue. "

My man wrote children’s books and poetry but also enjoyed drugs and was a hippy (not the dirty stinky kind, more just a counter culture guy). He rules. Check out his songs, it makes it all kind of come together.

He wrote a ton of great stories. He just also happens to look like the guy being described in most Creature Feature songs

Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.

Our Rules:

  1. Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

  3. Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

  4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

  5. No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.
