The Tay Bridge Disaster
Only joking.
Just one verse to give you a taster:
Beautiful Railway Bridge of the Silv’ry Tay!
Alas! I am very sorry to say
That ninety lives have been taken away
On the last Sabbath day of 1879,
Which will be remember’d for a very long time.

Possibly the worst poem ever written by the poet often voted the worst in the world. (Mind you, Wordsworth had some crackers.)
