Hey namesake-
I usually blame it on gravity.
Yes, I understand what you mean with the form: monstich or monostitch. The possible misspelling is arbitrary, but if there's some genius inner meaning at work that you saw, than I would certainly claim it as intentional.
I'm familiar with the many terms to describe the big H, but stick with the generic here to open up the multiplicity of meanings. (Man, if that don't sound high-minded...).
In this form, the title + one line is quite a challenge. While I agree that "stubborn" may not be the best choice, it is the one I came up with, so far.
That said, I really appreciate the various short form stuff, like the "baby shoes" piece that you referenced.
A form that I was blasted for even proposing is what I call thumbstruck poetry: poems written using only texting characters. LOL WTF OMG ... I have yet to attempt one, and haven't seen one.
Anybody else seen one?
Anywho, THANKS Mark,
the other Mark
