Article previously was almost entirely copyvio and nominated for speedy deletion by User:Þjarkur under WP:G12, though the violating material was then removed by the page creator; little is left. There doesn't seem to be any coverage of the poem in third-party reliable sources. YorkshireLad  ✿  ^(talk) 09:49, 2 April 2020 (UTC)
