Verse

This is a list of some of the verse I've written. Most of this has been posted on talk.bizarre, and some of it has appeared on rec.arts.poems and alt.non.sequitur as well, and in places other than USENET.

I'm not sure how to organize these, either, so I'm listing them by type of verse. Other suggestions are welcome.

Sonnets
Other rhymed verse
Renga. This is a Japanese form where each pair of consecutive stanzas forms a complete poem in itself. It's a neat form, especially for collaborative work, and is nicely described on Web pages by Dhugal Lindsay and Rodrigo de Almeida Siqueira.
- wild goose chase
- sun on the mountains. A collaboration with Ilana Stern and Paul Lord, for FTS Day 1995.
Blank verse and other unrhymed verse
Songs. I could have put these under 'other rhymed verse'. I guess. Anyway, these were all intended to be sung -- but not by me!
Parodies and in-jokes. Most of these were parts of threads on talk.bizarre, so they won't make a lot of sense unless you read the froup. Actually, they might not make a lot of sense anyway.
