Whereas I like language to be used for effect, not correctness. The
line above gets my attention, and it's a hell of a lot better than
using cliches. (Uh, sorry :)
I was thinking earlier today about a poem by Rosemary Kirstein, which
begins:
"Who has seen her, shadowing down the sky?"
And goes on in the mode, doing *very* weird things with grammar and
meaning, but effective nevertheless.
(I played _The Light_ for a few hours last night, and it looks good.)
