Fuck Yeats for bad information, fuck Yeats for being weird af to countess markievicz and her daughter, fuck Yeats for being a massive hypocrite about independence but by god that man could write a poem. The Second Coming?? Sailing to Byzantium? The song of wandering Aengus? The Stolen Child?? The Lake Isle of Inishfree?? All masterpieces. Still think about quotes from these all the time.
