This is not a famous phrase, it is a copy-paste poetry. To copy textually a poetry from a book it is not a copyright violation? — Jaluj (talk) 03:50, 9 February 2018 (UTC)

 * Keep - we have the fair use -principle - the poems can be copied up to 250 words.--Risto hot sir (talk) 08:49, 9 February 2018 (UTC)


 * Keep – one poem, from the book The Drowned River: New Poems, is hardly a copyright violation, though it could be trimmed just to be on the safe side. A quick google search shows that the whole poem is published in various poetry anthologies ( Good Poems; The Best of Poetry in Motion; How Did This Happen?: Poems for the Not So Young Anymore ) and books about the art of poetry ( Next Word, Better Word: The Craft of Writing Poetry ). ~ DanielTom (talk) 13:40, 9 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep. This should constitute fair use. If not, then per the DMCA, the copyright owner can contact us and give their opinion to the contrary. BD2412 T 19:03, 9 February 2018 (UTC)
