I thought this room was a space to discuss other poets yet I've noticed someone else posting personal poetry...
W. J. Turner, Australian-born neglected and forgotten poet and music critic. A poet that has been praised by Dylan Thomas, a Welshman who didn't speak Welsh. Since he was a Welshman, he should have tried to learn Welsh and write poetry in Welsh. It's a shame that W. B. Yeats didn't speak Irish either. He wrote so much in English but didn't have time to learn Ireland's real language? At least the brilliant and terrific yet unjustly forgotten, neglected and out-of-print Irish essayist Robert Wilson Lynd was a fluent Irish-speaker.
Anyways... 2 poems by W. J. Turner
