SMUG SENRYU, a collection of 240 syllabic haikulike 'itemettes, ' is intended to be very jokey, very fun. The essential smugness may be seen in how the author of the aggregation strove to cling absolutely to rigorous aspects of **5-7-5** in terms of counting the included syllables, also, each of the individual brief items might seem to insist on being only one basic English sentence. That no wish or attempt ever existed to honor some of Basho'...

Double Baloney ~~TWO~~ (a sort of sequel of 240 brief and quite standardly rhymed items to the same author's recent **Double Baloney**) has a noticeably divergent formulaic aspect. At the top of every textual page of Double Baloney ~~TWO~~ should be a limerick that perhaps none too galumphingly forms an entire sweeping sentence, at the bottom of each textual page should be an I LIKE sort of couplet the book's author awhile back invented and no...

Perfection forms an adamantine fizz permitting anything to form a dream in which a million shadows dart and whiz.

SMUG SENRYU 2" - a collection of 240 syllabic haikulike 'itemettes' - is intended to be a quite jokey and fun continuation of the same author's previous "SMUG SENRYU." "The essential smugness" may be seen in how the author of this relatively new aggregation strove to cling absolutely to rigorous aspects of **5-7-5** in terms of counting the included syllables, also, each of the individual brief items might seem to insist on being only one basi...

SMUG SENRYU ~~3~~ -- a collection of 240 syllabic haikulike 'itemettes' -- is intended to be a quite jokey and fun continuation of the same author's previous SMUG SENRYU ~~2.~~ "The essential smugness" may be seen in how the author of this relatively new aggregation strove to cling absolutely to rigorous aspects of **5-7-5** in terms of counting the included syllables, also, each of the individual brief items might seem to insist on being only...

Essays of Multiple Sorts ~~Two~~ involves an attempt to improve older texts by a process of editing. The individual pieces are decidedly outside of what generally might be considered verse formats. Some of the offerings might seem wonderfully brief, whereas at least several might seem decidedly toward verbose. Though apparently likely to fail rather badly, the author tried to accomplish some valid orchestrations of English.

140 Shorties" has a way of bobbing and weaving along, from item to item. Each versification is truly brief, relatively speaking - no longer, usually, than about 35 words. A special little approach [or 'recipe'] was used in terms of the actual composition of the entire aggregation, so, for one thing, an evident rhyming between some titles might very readily be seen to exist. Maybe about half of the included 140 pieces are rhymed and about half ...

140 Shorties II [More Verse Bits] may be something of an added insistence, or infliction, in the world. The collection's essential motif, which is of a quasi-form that includes evidently interlocking aspects in terms of titles that often blatantly rhyme with each other, might seem hopelessly ingrown and juvenile. The ultimate effect, despite any apparent expressed and re-expressed sadness or misery, is likely to be a very playful back-and-fort...

140 SHORTIES III might seem to be positing, over and over, the possibility of magnificence in a relatively trivial and silly private format. That format not only includes relative brevities. It also includes clumps of titles that rhyme with each other and includes a rather special back-&-forth way of moving from one versification to the next. The entire group of 140 pieces ultimately must be more of a verbal success than that same group ever c...

ESSAYS OF MULTIPLE SORTS is a not entirely forgivable foray into bits and pieces of serious horsing-around on some very verbal kinds of levels. The main possible defect or deficiency, stylistically, could be in terms of some somewhat quirky uses of, as well as some very "special" nonuses of, commas. Aggregately, the aggregated matter might seem (if not instructive) marvelously fruity and fruitful-or such. [[The opening offered item is perhaps ...

250 Recent (And Overly Decent?) Limericks is an evidently protracted attempt. The attempt is toward something like formal excellence. The form-in-question is (let's say) valid English, whereas the limerick form remains merely adventitious. Here beneath are a couple of sample limericks-and don't they manage to sweep along somewhat ridiculously? HELLO Hello and good-bye, little world of seeming to stay boyed and girled in manners and fashions wh...

I LIKE YOUR SHIRT (**Etc.**) is a compilation of 260 samples of highly rhymed iambic-pentameter versifications -- quatrains, threesomes, and couplets written so that each item might seem to be "one sweeping sentence." The roller-coaster-like strangeness of the entire collection may be starkly implied by its paradigmatic title, which promises a kind of barrage in terms of essential formulaics. A very definite attempt was made to push the indivi...

William Shakespeare's TWELFTH NIGHT [Re-done] is a very diligent attempt to put into 'Modern Dress' Shakespeare's original play. The process was arduous, and it involved trying to retain Shakespearean form at least hugely. [One salient (and silly?) deviation from basic faithfulness could be the apparently capricious altering of 'the Elephant' to 'Camel's Inn.'] A quite pervasive idea in terms of all practical considerations was something very ...

222 FREE-VERSE **Bits** only slightly may fail to be absolutely in any and every generally perceived as 'normal' tradition of modern Free Verse. The individual offerings are, on a sort of average, quite, quite brief. Rhyme definitely 'intrudes' sometimes, but Meter really and truly seems highly toward absolutely ruled out. [[Some 'sample Matter' could be the following: AMUSEMENTS Favorite activities must include a trip to the sea. Other fun th...

120 "STANDARD" LIMERICKS is a sort of sequel to another book by the same author. An absolute wish could be that this compilation might offer decided stylistic improvements over its predecessor. Each included limerick consists of a couple of carefully measured sentences. Ideally those should seem about as contrapuntally interrelatable as the octave and sestet in very classical sonnet writing. Any such possibility depends on subjective aspects? ...
