Lots of the "poems" in Tolkien, especially the sillier, funnier ones, are actually songs sung to be funny. Those are the ones this idiot quotes, as if they were supposed to be serious poetry! It's like criticising nursury rhymes or the collected works of Edward Bear for not being Wordsworth. Idiots...the world is full of them...
And I think that Shakespeare bit is lovely.
