The Epulaeryu poem
was invented by Joseph S. Spence, Sr., based on years of research. The name was
selected while touring the Mediterranean, Asia, and America, and enjoying a
variety of succulent and nourishing cuisines and drinks of flavor with an international
taste.
Joseph used to play
on AP as spencej, and a Double Reverse
Epulaeryu of his is here:
The
Epulaeryu poem is:
A
Seven-line poem
It is
syllabic : 7/5/7/5/5/3/1
it is
unrhymed
it is
unmetered
It is about delicious cuisine
and drinks from the culinary arts.
The
final one-syllable word must ends with and exclamation point.
The form is 7/5/7/5/5/3/1. Each line has one thought relating to the main cuisine. Therefore, this new poetic form, the Epulaeryu, which has corresponding lines built around the main dish and drinks, ends with an exclamation point, and concludes with the writer's excitement and feelings about such a specially flavored cuisine.
