  • on Ozymandias by Percy Bysshe Shelley, on May 15, 2008
    I can't read this without laughing; there was a parody of this poem on Monty Python's Flying Circus (fourth season, methinks), and it was, in Graham Chapman's words, "all about ants."

    But this version is fabulous, too.

  • on The Face That Launch'd A Thousand Ships by Christopher Marlowe, on April 13, 2008
    I love Dr. Faustus and pretty much anything by Marlowe... and Marlowe, himself. *sigh* I love Marlowe's allusions, period.

  • on Autumn Day by Rainer Maria Rilke, on April 13, 2008
    I am absolutely in love with this poem. The first stanza is especially fantastic.

  • on Childe Harold's Pilgrimage: A Romaunt. Canto III. by Lord George Gordon Byron, on December 23, 2007
    "I have not loved the world, nor the world me,--
    But let us part fair foes; I do believe,
    Though I have found them not, that there may be
    Words which are things,--hopes which will not deceive,
    And virtues which are merciful, nor weave
    Snares for the failing: I would also deem
    O'er others' griefs that some sincerely grieve;
    That two, or one, are almost what the seem,--
    That goodness is no name, and happiness no dream."
    *Sigh*... one of my favourite poems ever.
    Seriously.
