Yaest
Staey
Easty
Yates
Eatys
Yates seems to be the only one that makes any sort of sense but I never heard of an Irish poet named Yates. Beats me I am not a poet follower, guess I’ll have to wait & find out later

Anonymous (if that is your real name) - Heh, expect Rachel Allen to have a poetry based cook book out for next Christmas called 'Rosemary and Rhyme'. Araneidae - You're welcome! I did think the joke in this was a bit too obscure alright, but the opportunity to draw said poet as a loaf of bread was too hard to resist!

Alotron, thank you for the explanation, afraid I’m not very familiar with poetry, and although the babbling of the bread had a familiar ring, the joke was flying right over my head.

Bearman/Tony – Without giving it away, it’s a pun on the name of a famous Irish poet whose name is a close anagram of ‘yeast’! Hope that helps

I think you have to be Irish or a at least a William Butler YEATS scholar…

I’m slow like Bearman, he didn’t put yeast in so what did he put in instead??? Or will the next cartoon reveal all
