Meat Loaf - Paradise By The Dashboard Light

Not really going to wade into the topic wholesale but did want to point something out...

@Derp, you're smart. You are, in fact, very smart. You are also educated. Not everyone is one or both of those things and that makes a huge difference.

@mietze Make sure at least one of those phone calls is to a news agency. And if your senator or representative is a Democrat, let them know too.

Shirley Temple - Animal Crackers in my soup

I'm not a big poetry fan so not sure I have any favorite poems. That being said, here's a few I know and like...

Rudyard Kipling's Tommy
Samuel Taylor Coleridge's Kubla Khan
Felicia Hemans' Casabianca

I like the story of Kubla Khan that Coleridge woke up with the poem complete in his head after a dream he had but while he was writing it all down, someone came to the door and interrupted him and he could never recreate the rest of it.

And Casabianca is about a real person, the son of a warship commander during the Battle of the Nile.

As for Tommy... Well, because Kipling.
