The blurb underneath one of the H2G2 poems says "A little bit of prose", but prose is structured, grammatical writing ie a novel, newspaper article, pamphlet etc. Whereas poetry is verse, not prose.

As the authour of the prose/poem in question I wish to assure all those concerned that I considered it an honour to have my mere 'versification' elevated to the status of something with content.

It would seem by this conversation, evidence of people actually reading the damn thing, that the editor of the day did indeed do right by my submission.

I thank you all for your interest and concern.
