For those who would like an excellent and easily accessible book on writing poetry that is freely distributable in electronic form go here:
http://www.the-rathouse.com/files/prosody.pdf
It is written by an old friend and mentor, Dennis Hammes, who passed to a cold Minnesota wind in the middle of December, 2008. He also wrote a collection of more than 1000 sonnets mirroring the trials of Orpheus in a modern setting of which over 700 have disappeared due to his distrust of the publishing industry, as well as several other freely distributable books that will, in all likelihood also disappear.
It would make him happy, i think, to know that people are still reading and finding use for him , of sorts.
