On walls and pavements in cities around the world you may encounter poetry.
Of the few in English, I like 30 Cents, Two Transfers, Love by Richard Brautigan (who sounds like a pretty interesting character). Thanks Wolfdog.

Wonderful post.
Leiden is absolutely teeming with these, in a variety of languages. Some in English: Shakespeare, Yeats, Dylan Thomas, e e cummings.
More elsewhere.
