Elegy For Minor Poets Quotes

Elegy For Minor Poets quote from classy quote

Their ghosts are gagged, their books are library flotsam,Some of their names - not all - we learnt in schoolBut, life being short, we rarely read their poems,Mere source-books now to point or except a rule,While those opinions which rank them high are basedOn a wish to be different or on lack of taste.

~ Louis Macneice
