Famous Poems by great poets : Some of the best poems ever written . . .

Title of Poem: On Torture: A Public Singer by Hilaire Belloc

Category : Funny Poems

Torture will give a dozen pence or more
To keep a drab from bawling at his door.
The public taste is quite a different thing-
Torture is positively paid to sing.
