Comments on: The map-reader’s search for co-ordinates http://www.unreliablewitness.com/2007/04/21/search-for-co-ordinates/ Frequently pretentious since 1971. Clearly ambiguous since 2000. Completely and utterly incomprehensible since 2006. Warning: may contain synonyms.

Timbo - Interesting comment, thanks. I have been known to write poetry - quite dire poetry, to be honest - and some of it even turned up in obscure corners of the net many years ago. But nothing since. Oddly, for me, I tend to somehow lose the rhythm of words and resort to very obvious verse rhythms when writing poetry. When I'm writing prose - well, I'll let you into a little secret: I think about how the words sound, but any sense of rhythm in a piece just kind of ... happens.
