Adam Bertocci, who brought us Two Gentlemen of Lebowski, just blew my mind. He didn’t just write half a dozen alternate versions of Shakespeare’s most famous sonnet, he wrote 22 of them.
Can you even *name* 22 different styles of poetry? I couldn’t.
Haiku version? Check. Limerick? Of course. Petrarchan and Spenserian variations on the form? No problem.
How about one written in Abecedarian? That’s when you write your words in a____ b___ c___ sequence, and yes you include Q, X and Z, and stop at Z.
Or what about Pilish? That’s a three letter word followed by a one letter word, then four, then one, then five… following the digits of pi (3.1415…)
Now realize that I’ve only named 6 of them. He wrote 22. Enjoy. Very impressive, Adam!
