  • Notes:
    • A collection of poetry, not all of which is genre. We have included only the genre poems here. For a complete listing of the contents, see the Internet Archives.
    • The poem "The Demon-Ship" sounds like it should be genre, and most of the poem certainly feels that way, but the last stanza reveals that the author has misinterpreted the ship that saved him from the storm.
