Some poems I love for how they shift in the light, year after year. Like this Auden, for instance.

This is an absolutely effing phenomenal story and a one-stop demonstration of why we need Arts/Humanities researchers (or, even better, since there's some geology in there too, why the STEM/SHAPE divide is doing nobody any favours)

Ok here we go.
Look at the electoral maps by county for the last few decades of US presidential elections. You’ll notice that the South goes almost uniformly Republican red every time.
Duh.

There's a Tony Stark-Peter Parker poem which makes me see the point of Horace and I didn't think anyone could do anything else with Catullus 51/Sappho fr 31, but @AnnaJacksonSt has given me goosebumps. And it's so PRETTY.
