There Was A Young Man From... Wait, What Rhymes With Coronavirus?

I did not know that Portsmouth, New Hampshire has a Poet Laureate. It does, and she's been contributing poems to the city's COVID-19 newsletters. Some are rhyming, some are free verse, and it reminds me of how people are polarized about poems. Either you love and respect the form or you think it's stupid. And there's also that old-school "poems are less than manly" troglodyte attitude. You a poem person or nah? (New York Times)
