These poems are inspired by a brief side note in one of John Morressy's future history stories. I believe the comment was made in 'Anthem Maker' but I could be wrong if you know differently let me know. The writting of a poem where the only thing that appears on the page is the punctuation spaced where the words would indicate has intrigued me for many years and I've put together 200 to 300 of these usually a couple a month sometimes a few more.
