Ok, I am not insulting anyone's intelligence by backdating any of these entries. I am just posting when it is time to post, and doing a current day post every day in March going forward. And I promise that by the end of March there will be no less than 31 posts for the month.
But just one exception, the first posting of the month, for bureaucratic reasons.
Without further ado, I will announce this month's poetry type: Anaphora! It's in the posting title if you missed that. Just sayin. For the purposes of this blog, anaphora rules are as follows:
- Use a certain word or sound to begin lines of poetry.
- The word or sound must begin in two or more lines.
- The poem can have more than one word or sound, as long as there are at least two consecutive lines using each word/sound.
- If I change these rules later, there is nothing you can do about it because I will also change this page so no one will ever believe your complaints.*
A thanks goes out to Marc L. for suggesting this poetry type. Today's poem is about him.
Marketplace of ideas, and still
Marking suggestions to my call for poetry types
Markedly repetitive suggestions for those who have not read this blog for long.
Marc does not disappoint with anaphora.
* That was more for informational purposes than an actual rule.
