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.
