[Kestrel's Sestina About Most of His Fellow Cast Members]
These poems all appeared originally as specials meant to entice unwary readers into voting for Terebinth on the Buzzcomix site.
Kent Brewster used to run this web site in support of his SF writing magazine Speculations. I was a subscriber, and because of that, much to my surprise, I discovered in early 2002 that I had a message board over there. I used it to write poems for the next two years, and other folks wrote poems back.
Well, in March, 2008, Kent shut down the Speculations web site, and that, I thought, was that for the poems. Till I remembered archive.org, and typing in the old board's URL, I found the whole thing stored there quite nicely. So I figured I'd put all 104 posts from the board here in the Poetic Annex.
And so, without further adieu, I re-present Poems from the Old Speculations Message Board.
A collection of poetic musings and grotesque anomalies
Kestrel comes to reconsider
his life in general and his station
in the comic strip in particular...
