Yeah, good one there, Jan.

Looking back, I'm pretty sure the Robert Francis poems I posted yesterday aren't really epigrams. They're short and epigrammatic but not really epigrams. On the other hand, Gail says one of the ones she posted isn't one, but it sure seems like one to me.

Any thoughts on what makes a short poem an epigram, or not?
