Thaxter Elliott Douglas III (born October 31, 1957), better known as Thax Douglas, is an American rock poet based out of Austin, Texas. For many years, Thax was a fixture at Chicago-area shows, prefacing performances with poems directly inspired by the music of the bands. Many of Douglas' poems have been compiled in his books, which are self-distributed. He began writing "confessional poetry" in the 1980s before he settled on his present style of "poetry-portraits". In 2006, Douglas made an ill-fated attempt to move to New York City. He returned to Chicago and resumed reading poems before performances until he moved to Austin in 2009.〔()〕 The Posies 2010 album ''Blood/Candy'' takes its title from Douglas' poem written for their 2000 show at Schuba's in Chicago. ==Selected bands== Thax Douglas has read poems before shows of many notable rock groups and performers.
