Favourite poems?

Post and discuss your favourite poems here! Mines is Ozymandias by Percy Bysshe Shelley, evidently xDD. I also love The Raven by Edgar Allen Poe, but that's a tad long to post here xD. You'll have to look a bit further than that though to figure out where my nickname comes from. (:

I met a traveller from an antique land,
Who said--"Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
Stand in the desert....Near them, on the sand,
Half sunk a shattered visage lies, whose frown,
And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command,
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,
The hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed;
And on the pedestal, these words appear:
My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings,
Look on my Works, ye Mighty, and despair!
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal Wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away.

I like "The Lusiads" (even though its not a true poem). I'm thinking of reading "Paradise Lost"

oh yes thats awesome, also you should try reading Dante's inferno while ur at it.
for me it would be one of those two or the raven by Edgar Allan Poe.....

I've read The Raven once, its cool

Mr Poe was such a messed up guy, but i love his work, the darkness in it makes a nice change....well i say nice, but u know what i mean

It tells the story of a man who has lost his lover, and is slowly going mad. The raven never really speaks, he just imagines it as such. The word "Nevermore", which the raven seems to say at the end of the majority of the verses, relates to the man's situation, because he will never again see his lover, Lenore.

i got bored last night so i did his small tribute to poe
