IF adaptations of existing poems - an IFDB Poll

I'm looking for IF that adapts existing static poems, either using the text directly or taking the story/plot/themes of the text and turning them into something interactive. Does not have to be a "game" with a win/lose or branching paths or anything.

Please do say which poem it is adapting.
