Analysis of The stoic poet
Heather Lydia Thornhill 1981 (Manchester)
The stoic poets - poems were short as can be
They were up in the air but wild and still free
They made their point
Poiniently
But twisted the thoughts of deity
As the earth oscillates like
Swings and roundabouts
Her words carry clout
From mind and throughout
