Hi all,


Im heading off on holiday to south east asian for 6-10 weeks. I have a multi media player that (never been so nervous about using "that" or "which" ) displays text perfectly and I'd love to find a large, plain text file of popular peotry.
As a student I've always loved poetry, from john dunne to yeats, Im open to any thing from any resourse.


So to clarify, Im looking for any large collections of poerty in text files thats easy to download to my player and then read as I please.

Thanks in advance for any replay.

If the author has been dead 70 years it's probably here. From prose to poetry, this is the best collection of dead old farts you'll ever find.
