To Luke's post above:

You should both try: Find a thread, and each contribute
a line in iambic pentameter. Don't have a theme: just
contribute a line and see where it goes.

At least it would keep you busy.

Five posts up from this one:
You and Sap... try to make a poem:

He suggests we all try with rules.
I am not good at poety, don't particularly like, it but I
would give it the ole college try.

This one, enigma, not five posts as I suggested, I did not
see the posts on the next page.

What rules sap!

I'll srart a thread and supply the first line. The format will be at the beginning of the post. Each poster will copy all existing lines, paste them into a reply, and add a line.

I'll have it ready by tomorrow.

If I don't mess up on the cut and paste (you know how
I am) I'll be waiting.

The poem game is on Res Diversae under Group Poem Exercise.

I'll look after the Olympics opening. But with my
poetic ability, don't expect much.

It has to be iambic pentameter, yes??

[saparris]

Yes. It has to be iambic pentameter.

I looked: a bit complicated for me: somwhat like
tab A into Slot B: and besides it requires thinking.
My brain is snowbound: but I shall follow and perhaps
in the process some synapse may awaken.

[saparris]

It was your idea. Maybe you should call Hire-a-Poet. They charge by the meter.

[LukeJavan8]

How much per Iam?


Has Eddie discovered it??
It was supposed to keep the two of you busy.
I am really no good with poetry, but will give it a shot.
Don't get your oshkosh in a wedgie.

Go shovel snow.

Most of it is self-shoveling via the melt method.
