I liked the pattern of rhymes, linking the last word in each stanza, Shaun. I realize that there is hope for this form after all.
Here's an attempt to continue your dead poet theme, if I got it right. I was going to title this "Bury em Deep".
Dead poets
Now are gone,
But some still linger on,
Since profs insist that some of them
Be read.
And some
No doubt are good,
Write better than I could,
Write better even when they're cold
And dead.
