"Something Else Again" by Franklin P. Adams is a collection of humorous verses written in the early 20th century. The book features a range of poetic forms and addresses various themes, including romance, social commentary, and reflections on life, often with a light-hearted and satirical tone. Adams's work draws on classical references while intertwining contemporary settings and issues, making it both timeless and relevant. At the start of the collection, the reader is greeted with playful adaptations of classic themes, such as the anxiety over time and the futility of worrying about the future, as articulated in the poem "Present Imperative." Adams uses the character of Horace, drawing from his odes, to launch into discussions of love and the human experience, blending wit and nostalgia. The opening sections hint at a diverse range of topics and styles, suggesting the book will showcase the author's talent for clever wordplay and commentary on both societal norms and personal sentiments.
