"Title things. It's a good exercise" - _refugee_

ps damn. slightly confused about how many characters there are. The narrator, the grandfather of the narrator, and...she? they?

It's a fool that goes looking for logic in the chambers of a newgreen poem. Also, I titled it "Untitled" but it will eventually be known as "Track 10"

It'll have to rhyme then, won't it?

Although - Bruce Springsteen would totally sing this song.

I maintain it's a good practice. Titling things is hard. When you need to do it (or want to), having all that practice will help. I write the Kenning blog for over a year before I finally started getting the hang of titles, and even then, I'm not there all the time. But I wouldn't have gotten closer without forcing myself to title each one.

I guess I've never had a problem with titling things. I enjoyed going "untitled" for a change.
