I never really thought of all those consonants and accents as elegant, but now they seem to be doing a little dance.countrypeapiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10276399830149241673noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8472241.post-59745707019289304352009-03-26T16:35:00.000+01:002009-03-26T16:35:00.000+01:00Thanks for the offer.

In writing out the plea and at the very moment of having clicked "Publish this comment", another idea occurred to me and so - in the mysterious way of Americans - I will take a rain-check.

First verse (iambic pt) more or less acceptable in a ruptured sort of way. Can't make the link with the second (or the third or fourth). The subject? Technology, of course. Technology deserves poetry even if this exercise is beginning to suggest that I don't. I want something clearer, cleaner like your first two lines but I'm overtaken by a desire to bollix.Roderick Robinsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16828395545197001637noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8472241.post-13840615668692910302009-03-26T13:41:00.000+01:002009-03-26T13:41:00.000+01:00What a wonderful find, and how lovely what you've ...What a wonderful find, and how lovely what you've done with it.
