+1 for Coleridge, especially the first stanza of Kubla Khan [0]. Also, I'm surprised to see nobody here recommending A.E. Houseman. His Reveille is my favorite poem: ... Up, lad, up, 'tis late for lying: Hear the drums of morning play; Hark, the empty highways…
…works: Fermat's proof of his last theorem. He wrote a letter to a friend that said something like "I have a most elegant proof, but it's too big to fit in the margin." Also the second half of Coleridge's Kubla Khan, lost because of the man from Porlock. Douglas Adams made great play of it in Dirk Gently, IIRC.
……《冰与火之歌》的主线剧情。读完《权力的游戏》整整 26 年后,我连生气都懒得生了,彻底躺平放弃。我直接把它归到和 Gordon R. Dickson 的《多塞系列》(Dorsai saga)或柯勒律治的《忽必烈汗》(Kubla Khan)同一类里:惊才绝艳,但注定烂尾完不成。
…the main ASoIaF story line. _26 years_ after reading "A Game of Thrones" I'm not even mad. I've just given up. I'll just put this in the same category as Gordon R. Dickson's Dorsai saga or Coleridge's Kubla Khan: brilliant but never-to-be-finished.
I read Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency before ever coming across Coleridge's Kubla Khan and spent quite a bit of time (this was before I was on the Internet) trying to find the rest of the poem. I was quite disappointed once I figured things out but on the plus side I understood what happened…

给柯勒律治点赞,尤其是《忽必烈汗》(Kubla Khan)的第一节[0]。另外,很惊讶居然没人推荐 A.E. 豪斯曼。他的《晨歌》(Reveille)是我最喜欢的诗:……起来,少年,莫贪睡乡:听晨鼓已擂响;侧耳听,空旷的林邑……

……未完成之作:费马对他最后猜想的证明。他给朋友写信说的大意是“我发现了一个绝妙的证明,可惜纸边太窄写不下”。还有柯勒律治《忽必烈汗》(Kubla Khan)的下半部分,全被那个从波洛克来的人给搅黄了。如果我没记错的话,道格拉斯·亚当斯在《全能侦探社》(Dirk Gently)里拿这事儿大做文章。

我在读到柯勒律治的《忽必烈汗》(Kubla Khan)之前先读了《全能侦探社》(Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency),花了好长时间(那会儿我还没通网)到处找这首诗的后半段。等我终于搞明白怎么回事后挺失望的,但好的一面是我终于看懂了剧情里发生了什么……

……(18 世纪上半叶)。(他在梦里让魔鬼给他拉首曲子,醒来后凭记忆写出的那首《g小调小提琴奏鸣曲》充其量只是个苍白的仿作。)当然,让人不由得联想到的还有柯勒律治的《忽必烈汗》(Kubla Khan)。
