poems
=====




A collection of work in progress poems written in markdown. The idea of the repo is to provide me with a way to write and edit poetry in a way that exposes the versions those poems go through. The idea is to open the creative process to technical inspection.




##A Coat




I MADE my song a coat




Covered with embroideries




Out of old mythologies




From heel to throat;




But the fools caught it,




Wore it in the world's eyes




As though they'd wrought it.




Song, let them take it,




For there's more enterprise




In walking naked. 




-William Butler Yeats

thinking that this form works more as a single poem along the lines of The Cantos of Pound or Leaves of Grass
another step toward the realization of this repo as a single poem rather than a collection
the simple edits are always the best
the concept continues to grow and may yet get past a readme file
Struck the bit in readme about a collection of cantos - too arrogant.
the first canto of an extended meditation
wrestling with the concrete aspects of form
wrestling with the concrete aspects of form, with space.
wrestling with the concrete aspects of form, with space,again.
playing with markdown and the concrete aspects of form, with space,and blockquotes.
getting the formatting down
playing with blockquote as a component of line form
