ITT: post your favorite piece of poetry.

I'm quite the polite guy, so starting with mine:

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I've watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhauser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in the rain.

Time to die.
(not trolling. I know this is from a movie, but it still sounds like poetry to me.)
