Spectra
Spectra, satirical parody of the technique and diction of modern poetry, was published in 1916. Written by Witter Bynner, under the pseudonym Emanuel Morgan, and A.D. Ficke, under the pseudonym Anne Knish, the hoax was for a time considered a serious contribution to contemporary verse experiments.
