Worst verse

I have come across the worst poem ever written, and, surprise, it wasn't by Macgonagall. It's called A Tragedy, and it's by Theophilus Marzials. It was published in 1874.

Hi, glad you stopped by my blog. Still beating up on the man upstairs..lol

As for the poem, Pigeons Perspective From Above should be the name of that one following a diet of squshed bugs and over ripe dew berries...lol

Hope you had a refreshing vacation. TC

You think that's bad? Try 'The Poets Dream' by mcGonagall; all about a destroying angel burning down pubs in Dundee..
