    I have in my memory the conviction that Yeats wrote a # of poems as single
    sentences.  Flipping through my edition, I'm not immediately finding them.

    Can  anyone point me in the right direction?

    I'm putting together a little class handout on one-sentence poems, and would
    also be interested in any suggestions.  (Yes, I've already got Frost's
    "Silken Tent" and Stevens's "The Snow Man.")

  Ed Hirsch has one in his first book about basketball (it's an elegy for a friend).  I have one in my "1916" sequence which is a sonnet about Rupert Brooke spoken by Henry James.  How about something like cummings's "next to of course god I"?
