This second cover was a drawing by John Symes of Keats's grave in Rome. The issue includes the only concrete poem to appear in any Oxford Poetry: John King's "Bicycle" which, somewhat in the style of Apollinaire, makes a bicycle shape out of either LOVE or VELO, depending on where the letters are broken into words.
