Form Types

Almost all forms fall readily into certain form types which have certain skills and actualization procedures in common. These commonalities make specialization possible, and it is not uncommong to find Aligned who make exclusive use of one or a small number of types of form.

The forms types known to you are artifact, image, mathematical object, melody, natural structure, organic structure, shape, symbol and verse.

   Verse:  The structure of lyrical poetry is a ripe source of significant structure.  Very
       often, though not always, the poetry in question will come in the form of a haiku, a form
       much revered by Hanomans.  Actualizing a poetic form requires articulate knowledge of
       poetry and, often, a high degree of literacy.  One then holds the full meaning and nuance
       of the verse in mind and concentrates on it.
