[OPINION] What are some of your favorite narrative poems?

By happy-laurel61

I’m really into poems that kind of tell a story, even if the plot is simple sometimes. Like The Raven by Edgar Allan Poe or Goblin Market by Christina Rossetti. That said, it feels like this kind of straightforward narrative poem is pretty hard to find lately, at least in modern poetry. If anyone has recommendations, I’d love to hear them.
