The Lady's Dressing Room "The Lady's Dressing Room" is a poem written by Jonathan Swift first published in 1732. In the poem, Strephon sneaks into his lover Celia’s dressing room while she is away only to become disillusioned at how filthy and smelly it is. Swift uses this poem to satirize both women’s vain attempts to match an ideal image and men’s expectation that the illusion be real. For the poem's grotesque treatment of bodily functions, Swift was slandered by literary critics and psychoanalyzed as suffering from "the excremental vision."

The Suicide's Soliloquy The Suicide's Soliloquy is an unsigned poem, thought to be written by Abraham Lincoln, first published on August 25, 1838, in "The Sangamo Journal", a four-page Whig newspaper in Springfield, Illinois. News of the poem first arose shortly after Lincoln's assassination when one of Lincoln's personal friends, Joshua Speed, told William Herndon, Lincoln's biographer, that Lincoln had written a poem about suicide. The poem proved to be impossible to track down until 2004, when Richard Miller, an independent writer discovered the supposed poem. Although the poem seems to follow the same themes and style as Lincoln's other works, there is still controversy over whether or not it was actually written by Lincoln.

Time's Paces Time's Paces is a poem about the apparent speeding up of time as one gets older. It was written by Henry Twells (1823–1900) and published in his book "Hymns and Other Stray Verses" (1901). The poem was popularised by Guy Pentreath (1902–1985) in an amended version. Pentreath saw the poem "Time's Paces" attached to a clock case in the North Transept of Chester Cathedral where it is to be seen today. Recently the poem was even set to music. Pentreath quoted his version of the poem in his last sermon at Wrekin College, Shropshire where he was headmaster till 1952. His version then entered the public domain. Perhaps he wrote the poem down from memory and reconstructed it in the process. He may not have consciously intended to improve on Twells' version.

War Music (poem) War Music is the working title of British poet Christopher Logue's long-term project to create a modernist poem based on Homer's "Iliad", begun in 1959. It was originally the name of the first volume of that project, uniting the separately completed "Patrocleia" (Book 16), "GBH" (Books 17/18) and "Pax" (Book 19), which was published in 1981. In 2001 the further sections "Kings" and "The Husbands" were added, covering Books 1-4. It was followed by two additional sections, "All Day Permanent Red" (2003) and "Cold Calls", the latter of which won the 2005 Whitbread Poetry Award. These were founded on Books 5-9 and were collected with the former sections, still under the collective title "War Music", in 2016. Also added to this volume was an appendix with Logue’s notes and drafts-in-progress for further episodes.
