This is soo clever & witty, Anaya. Shows that you are on top of some forms ~ individuation shining through clearly ~ ai or no : A much deserved win. For once Brian did not favour. I like how you are starting to focus on Self & poetry. Very apt pic & title. Congrats, I am A. Have a beautiful weekend.

I know this appealed to all of Brian, through and through. Excellent word choices and crafting. Now the ending - very helpful, too. I bet you couldn't resist, wish I'd thought of it.

Dear Anaya, What an absolute blast to read. It feels like a rapid-fire jazz solo where the musician keeps changing time signatures every few bars just to see what kind of sparks will fly. There is a beautiful paradox in writing, sometimes putting up strict walls and structural constraints actually forces us to become more resourceful in finding a way out. It reminds me a lot of sitting at a piano or guitar, running tight, repetitive technical scales just to deliberately break the rhythm and stumble into a brand-new melody. Your lines "all’s fair / who cares / expand / like Strand" capture the true heart of modern verse. Why build a rigid cage when you can build a springboard? Thank you for tossing the traditional rulebook out the window and reminding us that language is something to be played with, bent, and thoroughly enjoyed. Blessings, Daniel

Well taken, Daniel. Wordplay, we can sway, the issue with the Footle is it'll have you rhyming all day. Nothing wrong with that or experimental art. One for all & all for one, poets should stick together & overcome protecting what they do not own, we must find a way to live with our neighbor, if they do not agree, be someone kind & demand nothing. I'm pleased you agree, love jazz! Waiting to add you, Daniel to the list of a New type form~you have potential, ;D

I predict this wins. For sure!!! Some of these were a hoot. Especially poems with too many words. You were clever to think up this idea.

Andrea, you have insured any doubt bouts, & lack of confidence, you are the Footle queen! Ty, blessings
