Yeah, Yoda-talking is getting passé in this age of the NOW. No decent poet would stoop thereto. “Name one poet who reverted to writing in a style from a previous era.” Well, Yoda, for one – he reverts to Wordsworth: “Away she goes, up hill and down, and to the wood, at length is come.”

Suck, my rhymes may.
In antiquity, my style lay.
But under the sun, nothing new has come.
