    I love the Poison Tree, and The Garden Of Love - both by William Blake. I also love The Naming Of Cats, by TS Eliot, and a poem about cats by HP Lovecraft (I have a feeling it's just called The Cats, or something really obvious that's escaping my memory!). All of them just have a rhythm which feels really natural, and they have dark undertones.

    • Thank you, do you have a line of one of them that stands out in your mind particularly?

    • I love "And priests in black gowns, were walking their rounds, and binding with briars, my joys and desires" from the Garden Of Love, and "Colour and splendour, disease and decaying,
      Shrieking and ringing and crawling insane, Rabbles exotic to stranger-gods praying, Jumbles of odour that stifle the brain." from the Lovecraft poem.
