Poetry in motion
This caught my eye concerning the man widely regarded as the worst poet...ever...
A sample
"So the train mov'd slowly along the Bridge of Tay,
Until it was about midway,
Then the central girders with a crash gave way,
And down went the train and passengers into the Tay..."
...turning tragedy into, er, something worse.
I wonder if he ever turned his hand to hymns?
