The name comes up so often here I thought for sure there was a thread already. Little Hawk really hammered home McGonagall in various threads over the years, but this Google search shows that a lot of others have as well.

In the US, our equivalent to this guy was Edgar Guest, "The Poet of the People." Guest was pilloried in literature by Sinclair Lewis who created T. Cholmondeley Frink as a character in Babbitt. I place this tidbit here only as breadcrumbs should anyone land on the thread and want to follow up on bad poets.
