When Life Takes a Turn for the Verse: Poetry links
Post Body

This has been a popular OT topic on Hax with multiple posters/poets and it's a great way to find new poets you might enjoy. (Thanks, the poster once known as JimWard and a few others for popularizing this.)

I suggest (as a reminder, not a mandate) that folks post text, with or without original links, poet's name, etc. Spoken poetry videos are good, hopefully with words/captioning. Let's con-VERSE!

And here's a homophonic poem by Louis Zukofsky translating "Miser Catallus" more for sound than literal meaning

"Miss her, Catullus? don’t be so inept to rail

at what you see perish when perished is the case.

Full, sure once, candid the sunny days glowed, solace,

when you went about it as your girl would have it,

you loved her as no one else shall ever be loved."

.

Miser Catulle, dēsinās ineptīre,

et quod vidēs perīsse perditum dūcās.

Fulsēre quondam candidī tibī sōlēs,

cum ventitābās quō puella ducēbat

amāta nōbīs quantum amābitur nūlla.
