H.P. Lovecraft is best known for his fiction, but he spent a great portion of his creative energy on his poetry. The Ancient Track collects the complete poetry of one of the twentieth centuries most iconic writers. The great majority of these poems were written between 1914, and 1920, the period of Lovecraft's heaviest concentration on poetry. Lovecraft's poetry may be regarded as the lesser of is literary output, but it merits collection precisely because it is an important ancillary to his other more well known forms of creative endeavor. Prior to the publication of The Ancient Track, Lovecraft's poetry had been scattered across several different volumes whose textual accuracy has not always been exemplary, while several pomes had been uncollected.

Lovecraft isn’t known to receive commendations for his poetry, but for what it’s worth, I like it.

Dark and dramatic, painting pictures with rhythm and meter and a whole lot of words that don’t mean much besides the image they give. Sure, reading several poems in succession highlights the repeated phrases and motifs, but everyone has their favorite phrases. Reading his poems aloud, I fall into the iambic cadence and feel a resonance, some deep chord echoing with a distant rumble up and out of the earth.

Read over his poem Nemesis loud, you’ll see what I mean.

Idk. I’m not a poet. I like it.

This compendium includes not only Lovecraft’s poems, but a host of other materials which I imagine would be useful for one writing a paper or doing some other sort of analysis. These include poems inspired by Lovecraft’s works, lists of resources, and other things I didn’t read. ( )

Complete collection of all Lovecrafts work. It includes quite a lot of uninspired poetry but all of his best work is here. ( )
