An Excercise in Cummings
This is a fun, and odd, sort of poetry. I think only the most serious - or insane - of readers will actually decipher its contents. An e.e. cummings type of exercise today. The Challenge: Write an addition poem. The first line will be one letter, the second line two letters, the third line three letters, and so on. See how far you can take it! (For an easier version, do this exercise using words instead of letters.) never one to do things the easy way...
