Okay so I still have a few names (notably Robert Frost, Edgar Allan Poe, Lewis Carroll and John Milton) in mind for at least another poll, maybe two or even three if you make suggestions. Thank you for the ones you've already made, by the way ! (I favor the lay of the Honeysuckle but it'll go in another poll just as the Shooting of Dan McGrew)
Yes I know this one is difficult too. Good luck.
My tag for this series is 'narrative poems'. Other poetry polls in my 'poetry' tag.

The Midnight Ride
LISTEN, my children, and you shall hear
Of the midnight ride of Paul Revere,
On the eighteenth of April, in Seventy-five;
Hardly a man is now alive
Who remembers that famous day and year.

they’ve cancelled m&m’s. the wild bastards down in marketing said “time to run a Kill Mr. Peanut campaign” and now Maya Rudolph is the spokesperson of m&ms. yes i know about the child slavery stuff and this is like maybe a deflect but i think it’s probably just super bowl bait and—
now then, young man, i am speaking with you, my end neigh. i’m desperate. our favor. there’s a gamestop you haven’t tried, just out of state, across the border. the greyhound leaves in 23 minutes and the return bus will collect you in two days.
i need you to go to that gamestop, retrieve bambi ps2, and bring it back to me
or so help me god. my wrath from beyond the grave will be unimaginable, boy

Every cool person whose fics I follow including you: "DESMOND DESMOND DESMOND" "Isu Tech" "angst time ehe" "ARABIC EAGLE MAN" "claaaaY" "Let's put Desmond into Situations. : ) " "LEO/EZIO" "ship Desmond with ALL the Ancestors!" "shawn is gonna freaking kill someone at this point"
Me, horrible at stealth games: "I have no idea what's going but but I love what you're up to!"
Oh I never said I was good at stealth games like I need to be incredibly clear I am so bad at stealth games. Any mandatory “don’t get caught” mission is at least for tries and a lot of me swearing. Any non mandatory “don’t get caught” mission is fully me saying I’m going to stealth it and ending up in a city wide brawl.

The Midnight Ride of Paul Revere
Artist: Grant Wood (American, 1891-1942)
Year: 1931
Medium: Oil on Masonite
Collection: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York City
The Midnight Ride of Paul Revere is a 1931 painting by the American artist Grant Wood. It depicts the American patriot Paul Revere during his midnight ride on April 18, 1775. The perspective is from a high altitude as Revere rides through a brightly lit Lexington, Massachusetts. It was inspired by the 1860 poem "Paul Revere's Ride" by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. Wood used a child's hobby horse as model for Revere's horse.
The painting is located at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, but is not on view as of August 2024.

As a born and raised New Englander, who would be roused from her bed at 3am every year on April 15th and packed off to Lexington, MA to watch the sunrise battle reenactment that started the Revolutionary War, I am always floored by the fact that no one in the western US even knows about this day.

Day One Thousand and Fifty Three
When I first met you, girl, you didn't have no shoes
But now you're walkin' around like you're front page news
You've been awful careful about the friends you choose
But you won't find my name in your book of Who's Who
