WhatWhyHow???

This year, I set myself the foolish task of trying to write something every day, and what you see here is the result. None of this is finished, polished, or in any way good. It's usually a few lines at the end of the day when I'm tired, my head's broken, and this nonsense spills out of it onto the page. Feel free to comment away, and if you think anything has any potential then let me know and I might have a go at working on it further.

But hang on, where's the first month? You've ripped us off! I hear you say... Well, yes. I have been writing since the beginning of January, but it's taken me a while to get the blog up, so everything here is a month old.

Sameth

Sameth, the post
You may question how
A vertical plank
Is so curvy now
It began as the Egyptian
Hieroglyph 'Sword'
Straight blade and cross-piece
Your illustrative reward
But the sinuous shape
Of our modern letter
Comes from 'shin' for teeth
Which suits it better
