I love him and his writing, but his poetry just doesn’t feel the same. It’s beautiful, just doesn’t always make a lot of sense and there isn’t really much of a theme.

“And by all forgot, we rot and rot,
With souls and body marred.”

The rest of the collection was fine, but The Ballad of Reading Gaol leaves a lasting impression.
