I’ve been enjoying learning poems for a few months now. It started when I heard a fantastic [visual recitation](https://youtu.be/37ARLInjLVE) by _Lauren Southern_ of _Rudyard Kipling’s_ [The Gods of the Copybook Headings](http://www.kiplingsociety.co.uk/poems_copybook.htm).

I used a simple spaced-repetition method to remember it. There are countless apps like [Anki](https://apps.ankiweb.net/) that use this method. I used an app called [NeuraCache](https://neuracache.com/) which can import the cards from Markdown.
