Ploppy Poetry is Poop


The Oxford Dictionary of National Biography is claiming a new contender for the world's worst poem. The poem, aptly titled "The Tragedy" was written by Theophile Jules-Henri Marzials and published in The Gallery of Pigeons in 1873.

Theophile is responsible for penning this wicked opener: "Death! Plop./ The barges down in the river flop./ Flop, plop."

And this blog post is responsible for your next album being titled Gallery of Pigeons.
