view from the archipelago: quote of the moment

October 29, 2008

"i'm reading it, but in my mind i go WAH-WAH-WAH-WAH-WAH ... what am i,
a dog now?"

-- zz, when being forced to read the most recent "choka of the moment"

I think it was *very* interesting for my brain to go from reading Choka-on-it, to reading your individual taco posts (in couplets), to your final, non-stop version.

My brain is accustomed to the couplet format and the dense style of the final TB post was both marvelous and intimidating. I read most of it over again (ie, I'd read it in pieces priorly), but it felt (in format, not necessarily content) like Shakespeare--more normal words and continuous phrases--and less like haiku--with *extremely* recognizable syllabification.
