TEN YEARS AFTER (Creating between the spaces)
Tokuisei.Com ^ | 8/23/08 | Neuromancer

Posted on 08/23/2008 11:32:33 AM PDT by Neuromancer





The poetry I call "Tokuisei Verse" was developed over a period of several years on an internet web site called FREEREPUBLIC.COM.


I would like to thank the owner, operators and financial donors who provide this public forum for allowing me, without condition, such a frivolous use of their bandwidth.


Tokuisei is a Japanese word meaning singularity.
(A point in space-time at which gravitational forces cause matter to have infinite density and infinitesimal volume,
and space and time to become infinitely distorted)


Tokuisei Verse is a direct descendant of the traditional Japanese Haiku.

However it contains only nine beats.

It is sometimes titled and sometimes not.

May I use one of the verses on your web site (with full credit to you) as an opening quote on a paper that I am writing?

The risk of being redundant is modified by the modern practice of instant replay and tape delay....
