Today's post is, in part, a followup to my previous post. There, I mentioned that I had allowed an idea to slip through my cognitive fingers by not noting it somewhere for later use ... and, sadly, that I could not bring it back to mind.
Before I had actually completed that post, and while I was in conversation with someone, the "lost" idea abruptly reappeared in my mind out of nowhere, and this time I made a note of it. The issue was as follows:
I had recently, discovered that Echoes, Neo-Victorian Poetry had been classified as MATHEMATICS in an online shop! I have no idea how this could have happened, but I quickly amended the page to reflect its true genre.
True, I was befuddled and annoyed at the time, this case of temporarily mistaken identity made me wonder whether there might be an element of truth attached to it. I took a breath and began to ponder this.
Indeed, I do tend to write in measured tempos, and I aggressively monitor the form and number of each line and stanza. In the final edit, I count my verses to make certain that they all match up smoothly. I soon realized that the designation of MATHEMATICS had not been entirely inaccurate.
Owing to this intriguing mistake, I am now considering writing a poem on mathematics. My apologies to those who were searching for Mathematics, but found Echoes, instead. I hope that they were somewhat entertained ...
