"Epitaphs for the Poets": poems about poets: longer than R.I.P. but short enough to be carved on a tombstone (whether the poet is great, famous, and dead, great, famous and alive, or great and obscure); each poem is a gem whose facets are fact, wit, and lit crit.

A handbook of poetics discussing all aspects of verse composition & describing over 300 verse forms with examples & schematic diagrams.
