commit f0d53d6

This repository holds work-in-progress poems written in the markdown syntax. It started as an attempt to expose my creative process (to myself and to anyone who may care to watch) and track the nature and number of edits any given version of a poem might go through. I decided to use git (as opposed to some other tool like mediawiki) simply because it makes sense to me and it's a tool I use on a daily basis. I also found it affords a level of textual simplicty that more bloated CMS style tools lose in their effort to be complete publishing tools. In the process of thinking through the implications of using a code management toolchain to write poetry I became quite interested in exploring how true the old Wordpress tag "Code is Poetry" is and whether it runs in the inverse (ie "Poetry is Code").

# And then this happened.
