Sir William Topaz McGonagall is my most favorite poet ever!
I mean seriously, this man wrote the worst poetry in existence and is actually considered the worst poet to ever have lived. However, his autobiographical writings are EFFING PRICELESS.
I have such a strong desire to write a monologue about this man and make it into a remarkable satirical comedy.
Also check out this entry on Wikipedia to learn more about him... Here's a taste:
"McGonagall also considered himself an actor, although the theatre where he performed, Mr Giles' Theatre, would only let him perform the title role in Macbeth if he paid for the privilege in advance. Their caution proved ill-founded, as the theatre was filled with friends and fellow workers, anxious to see what they correctly predicted to be an amusing disaster. Although the play ended with Macbeth's death at the hands of Macduff, McGonagall believed that the actor playing Macduff was trying to upstage him, and so refused to die."
