They retained some minimal financial value, which couldn’t be overlooked; thoroughly downtrodden souls, even in the face of unspeakable tragedy, cannot afford to ignore the stringencies of the everyday. Why this clinging so fervently to indirection, to doublespeak, to the sort of wordplay that seems to undermine the clarity and power of every assertion? One is tempted to answer, That’s just the way poets are, and leave it at that. Or: They enjoy making things difficult. Or: They’re drunk on their own voices. By the end of the poem, it is clear that Christopher is all better and is planning the next thing he’s going to do to “amuse” his parents.

The poem navigates the boundary between the emotional and carnal aspects of love, merging the two in a raw, unfiltered depiction. It begins with the phrase “There once was a tiger, terrible and tough”. The speaker decides that tigers, despite their stripes, aren’t “stylish enough”.

But Burns is probably best known by students as that poet who wrote in that weird Scots dialect you can’t really understand. Berryman won the 1965 Pulitzer Prize for Poetry for his nebulous, semi-autobiographical collection of poems, 77 Dream Songs, which follows an unfortunate series of events in the life of a main character, who bears a resemblance to Berryman, named Henry. The ever-evolving poems are known for their unusual phrases and changes in perspective. Also, they’re sometimes dirty in an abstract way. Take, for example, Dream Song 4: After turning six, they are happy to remain that age forever. The child speaker feels as if they are as clever and happy as they could ever be and see no reason to age any further. Here are the first few lines: Rosеs arе rеd, violеts arе bluе, and so bеgins a timеlеss tradition of poеtic еxprеssion that has capturеd thе hеarts of romantics for gеnеrations.

Of all the funny poems on this list, this is one of the lovely and memorable. Milne takes the reader into the world of Christopher Robin. Written in 1948, this poem was enough to make mothers blush and fathers grumble in disapproval. W.H. Auden takes his time to vividly describe a sexual encounter between two young adults on a hot summer’s day. I was prepared for Wendy Cope when she arrived in my adulthood, because in my elementary school days some literary sophisticates among my chums introduced me to Miss Susie, whose adventures can be found in nineteen variant episodes in Wikipedia. A young woman of questionable character but undeniable verve, Miss Susie got around, clearly. Wikipedia’s Michigan version, dated 1950s, differs slightly from the account I learned in Detroit a few years later, perhaps now set into type for the first time: With its vivid imagery and candid language, the poem doesn’t shy away from the primal facet of human relationships, embodying the modernist ethos in literature. The poet uses a conversational tone, turning an intimate moment into a relatable narrative, while also exploring themes of desire, passion, and the sensory experience of love.

Here are the last lines:Known for his long narrative poem the Metamorphoses, Ovid is one of the best writers in all of Latin literature. His mastery of the elegiac couplet is unparalleled, and his writing greatly influenced everyone from J.M.W. Turner to Miguel de Cervantes. But who knew he was kind of a perv? Ovid's first completed book of poetry, Amores , is a poetic account of a love affair with a high-class lady named Corinna. Here is a selection from that book's In Summer’s Heat:
