on Elvish poetry

[figsauce]

Leave it to me to rhyme myself into a corner in Quenya. The word "peu", meaning "a pair of lips", is somewhat unusual, and trying to find something to rhyme with it is like trying to rhyme something with the word "orange".

You'd think I learned my lesson after Kartagate about writing Elvish cards. But nooo.

...says the guy who, in sixth grade, spent an entire morning decoding and then memorizing the runic alphabet from The Hobbit...

Oh, and over the next couple of years I taught it to all of my friends so we could write each other secret messages.

YOU DID THAT TOO???

Actually, I think I made my friends learn runes before I got around to reading The Hobbit. Oh, and hieroglyphs too.
