Round 75
[drumroll]
Yusef: "Reading the Bones: a Black-Jack Moses Nightmare" by Ahmos Zu-Bolton II
Bob: "A Sheath of Pleasant Voices" by John Yau
Two good poems with which to end the game. Zu-Bolton's spooky nightmare about some kind of soothsayer interpreting a pattern of bones on the sidewalk, and Yau's pleasant, witty poem about a more obscure nightmare. I did like the lines:
I am one of the last
of the computer chain errors
to become illuminated
Yau's poem lacks conviction for me: I don't know why it was written, though I am willing to keep reading it until I figure it out. The last round has to be a tie. Final score, after 75 rounds.
Yusef: 20
Bob: 41
Tie: 13
With one round vacated.
