Farrago  

What to say about Menippus but that without leaving a word he left a genre?
What to say about Meleager but that he wrote of love?
What to say about poor Whigham, who admired Ezra Pound and wrote for Diana Mosley and died too
     soon in a car crash in California, but . . . What does the ambassador Chapuys say to Cromwell of
     King Henry: “a man of great endowments, lacking only consistency, reason and sense”?

Menippus of Gadara. His Complete Epigrams may be found here.
Meleager, also of Gadara, who wrote Menippean satire, and edited The Greek Anthology, from which the poems in the YouTube link come.
Peter Whigham. It is his translations, or, more accurately renditions, of Meleager I read.
