[blank line] [blank line] [blank line] [blank line] GETTIN' ON. [blank line] [blank line] /* When I wuz somewhat younger, I wuz reckoned purty gay-- I had my fling at everything In a rollickin', coltish way, But times have strangely altered Since sixty years ago-- This age of steam an' things don't seem Like the age I used to know, Your modern innovations Don't suit me, I confess, As did the ways of the good ol' days-- But I'm gettin' on, I guess. */ |
Matching indentation
Match indentation, but always with an even number of spaces.
Poem as major division
This poem's heading has been treated like a chapter heading, with four lines before and two after. This is not always the case. In a book of poetry, if the project comments and discussion thread don't say whether to treat each poem as a chapter or a section, ask.
