Anything but “Exquisite Co”
Being a neophyte to this forum, I’m unsure how to do this, or if it is legit. The other day a phrase popped into my head that I can’t get rid of. It has too few rhymes that aren’t predictable, so making a “serious” poem eludes me. It is “Byzantine pajamas”, and I think it comes from an unofficial and technically very incorrect expression in Turkish that I heard from a Western friend applied to visiting pre-Conquest churches in Istanbul and beyond. Well, we all did that, and they are shabby but great. But what can I do with this shard? It’s banging around in my head and won’t quit. Is there a game?
