I mention on the blog that I emulated Donald Hall with a long poem about my life as a baseball fan in the "nines" form. It's called "Nine Innings" (9 stanzas of 9 lines each, 9 syllables per line - it's one of the longest poems I've written). It's in my latest chapbook and was published in Spitball, the literary baseball magazine.Bruce Niedthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04974369288649730186noreply@blogger.com
