The Iambic Pentameter Nightmare

Wednesday, April 22nd, 2009

The writing contests we are hosting have invaded my mind and rudely intruded upon my dreams. Last night I dreamed that a Presidential order mandated that everything be written in iambic pentameter.

In order to avoid arrest I demanded that Steve, the lead programmer at Review Fuse, rewrite all of our systems so the content of our site and the programming code would read in iambic pentameter. As Steve typically does with absurd requests he refused. Cold and clammy I awoke wondering if my wife and kids would wait for me while I served 10 years in prison because of the Review Fuse rebellion against iambic pentameter.

Do your stories, books, or poems ever disturb your slumber?
