Feb. 4th, 2008 11:26 pmI have started writing a description of the boundary of Greater London in iambic pentameter.
Uxbridge is where our Journey will Begin;
where Oxford Road does bridge the River Colne;
our Boundary does chase the Torrent north;
til Hertfordshire we touch, and then go East
i may have gone a little crazy.
you see, someone asked on IRC to what extent were we allowed to use official government maps which actually define boundaries. and i said, no, you can't. but you can use the prose descriptions attached to them. and then i said that, come to think of it, you could use verse descriptions attached to them, as well, were there any.
