HOW COULD THEY DO 1T?
used to think that Mr.. Keats
Was quite a little bard.
In fact his published work still meets
With my profound regard
And yet my taste is full of flaws,
Which fills my soul with pain,
must have got him wrong, because
He makes his meaning plain.
Perc Shelley, so I always thought,
Knew how TO write a line
In which each lifting word was
fraught
With melody divine.
And yet my fancy that his song
is usually sublime
And full Of uplift must be wrong
get him every time.
I'm even fond of Byron's stun.
His poems I've enjoyed,
Although they're sometimes rather
rough
And smack bit of Freud.
And that Of course is quite absurd
For all his work I've scanned
And never run across a word
/ couldn't understand.
I know OF course these bards are
through,
For not a magazine
Believes that lays will ever do
That say just what they mean.
But though they don't deserve their
fame.
And had no punch or pep,
These played out poets just the
same
Got quite a little rep.
