perhaps in poetry:  i'm working on translating a poem that has a fair
amount of phrase repetition for poetic effect.  i think 'nei' might be
useful in this case.


I hope we can see it soon!

But {nei} would be used rather to _avoid_ repetition,
wouldn't it? The problem I have with it is that it
is incurably recursive, if taken at all seriously.


but maybe poetic repetition is not very 'lojbanic'
anyway....(?)


Anything poetic can be lojbanic, we just have to figure
out how.
