Experiment where each poster replaces one of 17 words of this poem, so it keeps evolving by twinkling. Each poster cannot re-post until at least 4 other people have posted, and your word includes any punctuation mark following it.

Let's see if we can pick up some momentum by revising the groundrule so that you can post a word change after 4 intervening posts or, let's say, at least 1 intervening post and 8 hours. (For 2 or more players!) ~Tom

[so, Tom, are you in charge round here? Good. What's the deal with the rules? Can we change others' words or only edit our own? Not sure this is gonna work without some changes . . . . .]

Well, Brian, I started the thing and am trying to get it off the ground. Start-up rule is that you can replace any one of the 17 words. What do you suggest about changing?
