49er Nuggets are poems of 49 syllables arranged in 13 lines of 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 6 5 4 3 2 and 1 syllables, stating a 'nugget' of wisdom, perspective, insight, information, etc. preferably with a twist. A proper Nugget is to be Titled with a word-twist of some variety as well. I 'invented' the form in Dec, 2004.
Here are a three examples:
ore naught
why would I e’er attempt to make a mark? is there a purpose? should I merely aim to spread a little serendip? it teases me to forge limp, bleating poems seeming pointless ‘till they wake renewed Light

in form I’ll query
Why would I want to kill ambition’s will by ripping form up; would this freedom limit me or others banging heads to get our feelings down in printed booklets, each with pages bound in one accord, no?

‘s no fun
snow falling’s delightful if you see clear across your driveway or don’t work this morning or have waked at a ski lodge but if you’ve got two feet and wife says ‘shove it’ it just feels cold as it blows on red nose

Have fun!
deLightingly, Daniel

NUGGETS OF GOLD – WON’T BE LOCATED INSANE IN SEINE New use to gather in gold and its dust escapes when I rub tailings through a steel sieve; searching for dregs that I feel others have dismissed so finds from the skeptic give the aura of hope that leaves me drained
No corpse as of yet. Nowadays, I feel like that until I get my ine fix in the morning; caffeine and nicotine. I have a tentative list of participants in the contest whom I feel are deserving of awards. As you said, we'll discuss that tomorrow. The difficulty in this contest still persists.
