Dip again, and discover the compressed wit of Dorothy Parker and Ogden Nash; contemporary poets Simon Armitage and Moniza Alvi at their most succinct; short poems in very odd shapes from Apollinaire and Vaclav Havel ... So few lines, so much variety- epitaphs and epigrams; couplets and quatrains; lyrics, limericks and lullabies - go on, dip again.
