I want to parse a page for all poem urls. Ie this page.
Fading Away by MornieAtlantie Posted 10 hours ago. Last seen 16 minutes ago. Categories: Spiritual.
Fading Away would be a poem link. I want to write a script to scan this page for all of these links, go to the poems and eventually parse the poem page for specific details. So I want to find all the links, go to all the links and then parse every single one of them.

I had a parsing program a while ago but everyone kept yelling at me to try this or that module and asking for specific help when everyone suggested different things was very discouraging. Would would be the easiest module to work with? If a person had let's say 100 poems, do you think the load time would just stop the script from finishing? Any other ideas or suggestions?

Thanks everyone. Remember I'm a moment for this rose it has to die, Now that you've set me free, I'll cease to wonder why,
