These poems are told from various points of view, depending on the situation involved. There are rhymed verses, rhymed irregular, blank verse, cinquains, multiple cinquains, a haiku, three mirrors, a rondeau, and an aptly named villanelle. Some comic relief pieces are included.

This same circuit can be adapted to control kilns and ovens for a variety of uses. Uses including ceramics, heat treating metal, glass arts and preheating cast iron prior to welding. The circuit itself is identical to circuits used to read exhaust gas temperatures in car engines.< Less
