No Poeticous any more. It seems to have different rules fot different countries. All versions on line seem to be missing stanzas. The most complete I found: https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poe...gs-lightenings.
Oh my! The poem is good but the story is chilling.
back later with the "U" poem
A bit better :)
Yes I was surprised too with the ending.
