[Puzzle] Morse Code - HOW (10/3/06)

laurenesque · Post by **laurenesque** » Tue Oct 03, 2006 8:57 pm

So this is something my fiance just threw out-- I was reading him the other poems, and he asked if, for line 6 of this one, we'd considered putting "rape" at the end. It's morbid, and would be more of an approximate rhyme, but... I dunno. I figured I'd just toss it up here since we're still looking for the answer.

In Cassie's "What" clue, a line stated "While the victim nods her head", and some people thought she might be drugged... just a thought.

PROSED
SPORED

are also solutions. but i suck at anagrams.

Not a bad suggestions, seeing as how Frank like "Alternative Medication" but I doubt it

NOS collected these in the forum of past ideas.

I PASS HIS VOICE DOWN I CREATE
HIS VOICE I PASS DOWN, I CREATE
VICES POISON A WISH, I'D CREATE
I WORSHIP CASSIE ON VICE DATE
HIS EPIC WOVES CRISIS ON A DATE
IN CAVES ECHOES DRIP, I WAIT
PEACH COVERS INSIDES, I WAIT
VOICES DIES RIP SO HE CAN WAIT
PERISHED VOICE SCIONS AWAIT
IN PRIDES ECHO CAVES, I WAIT
ASIDE COVES ON CIPHERS I WAIT

What are the current best suggestions?

None of those sound right.

Something tells me we can't solve this one without some extra help. There are just too many variables

We must be missing one. Which, with our luck, is the right one.

Of course the line with infinite variables is the only one that isn't repeated in another poem.

It's like she put up the alphabet and said 'MAKE WORDS!'

I am no poet, but as I understand it, the last line needs to:

1. Have 4 beats in it
2. End is something that rhymes with FATE
3. Have something to do with the "How", since the rest of the stanza is a repeat of earlier lines, none of which talk about How.

Probably stating the obvious here, but I thought it was worth mentioning.
