Re: [spoon-discuss] Re: [Spoon-business] Unanimous bonus

Poetic feet are units of stressed vs non-stressed syllables.  The four 
standard feet of which I am aware are:
Spondeic: a single stressed syllable: [O] what a rogue and peasant slave am I
Iambic: two syllables unstressed followed by stressed: [because] [I could] 
[not stop] [for Death]

Trochaeic: two syllables stressed followed by unstressed: [By the] [shores 
of] [Gichi] [gumi]


Anapestic: three syllables unstressed unstressed stressed: I'm sorry I 
can't come up with an example at the moment but think of horse galloping 
rhythm.
