You may also be interested to note that there is a concordance of Lovecraft's poetry in the wings as well. It is proceeding slowly, as there are too many competing works taking my time, but it is getting there. The texts used are those in The Ancient Track... with one exception. That is a poem which had been considered lost, but which was recently found in a British apazine by an EOD member.

I am also working on the preliminaries for the first book-length study of Lovecraft's poetry.
Ghyle: I would be very interested in hearing more about this; I've done some notes toward analyses of some of his poems myself, and am curious what approach you're taking (I'm quite fond of literary criticism myself); so I'd appreciate you keeping us posted on this one! By the way... I'm pretty sure I know which poem this is that's been found -- would you mind giving the title? Thanks.
