Which of these three poems do you think would be best to recite in class?

Well, our teacher gave us a list of poems to choose from for a jam session. I've already memorized four of them but I can't choose one to recite. And tell me why you think it's good :) - Sonnet 18 (William Shakespeare) - Jabberwocky - Invictus I'm thinking of memorising Annabel Lee, Song to Celia and Sonnet 43 (Elizabeth Browning)

1. If you can pull off "Jabberwocky" go for it! You'll get some laughs and respect that's for sure. If you have a secret crush in the class, go for #18. While you recite, give him/her a few knowing glances at opportune moments. "Invictus" is also fantastic poem when recited with passion and force, so if you have it in you, and perhaps need to release some tension at someone/something, choose this poem. Read the poems aloud to yourself or friends first, and see which suits your voice best.
