I am near completion of a second packet of similarly styled questions on similar content; however these questions are quite a bit more difficult. That being said, if you enjoyed the first one, I think you will enjoy this one and hopefully learn about a poem or two you didn't know about before. I will try to make a poll for a couple times which I am free to read the packet in the main Quizbowl Discord Server.I have written ~20 tossups on works of short poetry (really anything that is easily readable in a couple minutes or less or <50 lines). There is no real distribution of the packet except poems I enjoy. This results in more 20th/21st century American poetry than any other subcategory.
The answerlines range in difficulty from 2 dots to 4 dots, but most answerlines will be things which come up reasonably frequently on quizdb.
The questions are around 500-650 characters in length, a good comparison for the style would be 2021 SKUFFED or NAQT.
This packet is especially focused on the content of the poems, so if you have read a poem thoroughly, you should be able to get questions on it early.
