A poem incapable of italics <br />is simply pathetic <br /> - Jackrudin <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />a poem in which <br />even when necessary <br />you can’t <br />use italics <br />whether through ignorance <br />or through plain disabled <br />or through a technicality <br />is a sad poem <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />(damn! three words in all so far <br />in this poem <br />and a fabricated quote <br />and a whole line <br />that I wanted in italics <br />after the parenthesis <br />have all been disabled!) <br />is italics some form of profanity?<br /><br />Raj Arumugam<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-poem-without-italics/
