Poetry in Song
Carl Solomon, Patti Smith, Allen Ginsberg, William S. Burroughs
National Poetry Month is here
Shift your brain into high gear
Ponder a song that was ere a poem
Plenty to choose, I'm sure you know 'em
In the comments have them arrayed
After nine you'll hear some played
Here's what we played:
The Libertines "Gunga Din"
Rudyard Kipling "Gunga Din"
The Byrds "The Bells of Rhymney"
Idris Davies "The Bells of Rhymney"
First Aid Kit "Stay Gold"
Robert Frost "Nothing Gold Can Stay"
Sinéad O'Connor "I Am Stretched on Your Grave"
Anonymous "Táim sínte ar do thuama"
