No, I'm amazed by it's existence at all, I don't find it good - but I'm not a fan of poetry in general.

I think his other writing is more interesting to read, but White Stains is special in how foul it is. The fact it was written at all blows my mind.

Edit: I will add though, Crowley does have a peculiar and breathless way of writing that is noteworthy, but you'll find it in any of his works. And it's neat that he wrote White Stains both in english and in french and they are considered separate works!
