Welcome to the Iamb in Anapest

The story about how poetry inserted itself into my life is far too long to repeat here. I will state that I have neglected to read and write poetry between 2011 and 2013. In that time, I realized that I couldn't write stories, because I'm not much of a storyteller, and that I am not a ballroom dancer. I have rhythm, but I'm not coordinated.

Returning to poetry has been my salvation. The iamb is da-DUM. The anapest is da-da-DUM. This blog is the da-DUM in da-da-DUM.
