Poetry

I read a fair bit of poetry, though I do not write any. My favorite poetry site is the Wondering Minstrels. I've contributed a few thoughts: To a Mouse, Casabianca, On Turning Ten, A Hillside Thaw, The Clod and the Pebble, The Distracted Centipede. I also maintain a personal collection of favorite short love poems.

Polyonymy

You might search for me under the names "Greg Marton", "Gregory Marton", "Gregory A. Marton", "KB1NYR", "Marton Gergely" (Hungarian), "Santirix Gremionis" (from 9th grade!), "Gremio", "Grem", or even, if you truly don't like me, "Gremio Marton" or "Gregory Martin", or you might be looking for a gremio who wrote from ai.mit.edu, csail.mit.edu, acm.org, speakeasy.org, glue.umd.edu, cfar.umd.edu, umiacs.umd.edu, or some others, and while some of these names are more correct and relevant than others, I hope in any case that this disclaimer helped you find me. Thanks and props to Philip Resnik for the idea!
