Edward the Bonobo - Gone.

Yeah, sorry - another one. Everyone seems to be doing them nowadays.

But this one serves a purpose. I'm trying to get a couple of people interested in poetry against their will. My idea is to post a few poems I know (and some I don't), and then we can talk about what's inside them.

(I'm no expert - but it seemed like a good idea. It will be as much a learning experience for me as for anyone).

So...if you fancy joining in discussions or want to suggest a suitable poem:

In that lost post I basically agreed that it's a good first choice poem to get the ball rolling and also mentioned another poem of his that I liked. It's about a shell-shocked bloke coming home from the war with a bag "bristling with bayonets" and and dishing them out to the local kids.
