i just learned what the actual history of charlie is from your pinned post and honestly i don’t know if it makes me feel better about it or not bc i grew up in the boston area and the story as i remember it goes:
there was a kid named charlie who paid his fare and got on the T, he went to get off but didn’t have any more money so he couldn’t, charlie was stuck on the train (forever), charlie never got off the train and to this day is still inside that one train car on display in boylston, dispute still being in said vehicle he also haunts the entirety of the MBTA
Common misconception! The ghost of George Pullman is actually stuck in there. But the rest is one-hundo-percent true!
(Glad we're all collectively mythologizing that one car in Boylston lmao)

boo no one on the Cemetry Gates genius page has wondered if the choice of poets in the line "Keats and Yeats are on your side, while wilde is on mine” is not just an allusion to the melancoly nature of the romantic poets that links both the critics’ labelling Morrissey as miserable as well as the setting of this song being in a cemetary, but additionally an attempt to highlight the differences between Morrissey’s character and the secondary one in the song. One example of this being the language used by the former two poets being complex metaphorical and interpretive, and the latter poet being someone who Morrissey views as “using the most basic language”, so possibly painting the other character being complex and hard to understand to him whereas he views himself as perhaps being somewhat upfront, and different. A second difference could of course be an implied difference between sexuality, which is something that seems further alluded to in the final line of the song which repeats the same line “Keats and Yeats are on your side” but adds “[but] weird lover” to the refrain of “Wilde is on mine”.
