Who was the best poetry?

I don't like to think of Syd Barrett as a poet, more a medium for words.
I wish he was here.

I THINK BARRETT AS A BIG GREAT METAPHYSICAL POET, A POET OF THINGS BEYOND MUSIC BUSINESS.

I like Morrison's lyrics, but, having had 3 volumes of his poetry, I say that his poetry on the whole is really quite bad :|

They each have pretty different styles.. Barrett has his unique acid-laced childlike whimsy, Morrison is dark and sensuous, and Dylan is uh.. folksier.
