Day 1: Change

"Epictetus

Though all is changed by time and tide, yet only I, the man inside."

Along with my personal challenge, I thought that I might take the opportunity to explore different poetic forms throughout the 66 days. I will need to repeat some, of course, but the idea is to expand and express.

My first poem, one line, is written as a basic epigram. An epigram is described as a brief, interesting, memorable, and sometimes surprising or satirical statement. In modern times, the epigrams has been codified by various authors as rhyming couplets (the line above is easily divisible), of varying lengths, though the form has ancient roots, dating back to Greco-Roman times.
