For Annie Recorded at Bardic Madness 2015 in Unicorn The Unkindest Cut His fellow actors claimed that Shakespeare wrote so fluidly that "he never blotted a line" (that is, he never edited). Ben Jonson responded, "Would he had blotted a thousand"*. Yes, even the Bard could have used an editor once in a while. In the morning you'll select one of three longish (possibly very bad) poems. Your job is to cut it down to something approximately sonnet length (although the form chosen is up to you). |
