Form or function the eternal dialog between poets.

Peter,
Thanks for the comment and for playing along.

manik sharma,
Most games come to a draw, but if you know how never to lose you might win out on attrition. But if the other side knows how to never lose too, it'll go on all day.

walking man,
Form is playing as X today. Would you like to stand in for O?
