Does beating the crap out of people ever inspire you to the written word? Then we have just the thing today: Street Fighter poetry, inspired by real-life poems.

Tyger! Tyger uppercut!

Tyger knee him in the gut.

What jump forward jab or fierce

Could brave this fearful Street Fighter?

What a find! Street Fighter and poetry usually go together like peanut butter and tobacco but we've found these awesome poems that were written with real poems in mind. For example, "Tyger Uppercut" is inspired by William Blake's "The Tyger".

There's also: Carrion Console (Gerard Manley Hopkins' "Carrion Comfort), Fight Song (John Berryman's "Dream Song 14"), Chun Li (Joyce Kilmer's Trees), and Shadowloo (W.H. Auden's September 1, 1939).

You can find them all after the break!
