"Fun with Accentual-Syllabic Prosodies

"The new edition of Lewis Turco’s The Book of Forms: a Handbook of Poetics is out, so I’ve been waist deep in that every night this week.

"Dear University Press of New England,

"Please publish The Book of Forms as an eBook and a hardback. I’m sick of having to spread its pages open with one hand while I’m taking notes.

"This paperback edition won’t live more than 90 days—I’ll crush it with my love and leave bite marks all over its tender soft cover.

"Hardback and eBook, please."
