Flatten directory structure
All content files (*.txt, *.html, *.river) are now in /.
I did this to simplify the compilation step, and to make
linking easier.  I'm still thinking about whether I should
move the contents of js/, img/, and lua/ into /, or into
an 'assets' folder of some sort.  We'll see.

18I think that I could write formal poems \
19exclusively, or at least inclusive \
20with all the other stuff I write \
21I guess. Of course, I've already written \
22a few, this one included, though "formal" \
23is maybe a stretch. Is blank verse a form? \
24What is form anyway? I picture old \
25women counting [stitches on their knitting][knitting], \
26keeping iambs next to iambs in lines \
27as straight and sure as arrows. But my sock \
28is lumpy, poorly made: it's beginning \
29to unravel. Stresses don't line up. Syl- \
30lables forced to fit like [McNugget][] molds. \
31That cliché on the arrow? I'm aware. \
32My prepositions too---God, where's it stop? \
33The answer: never. I will never stop \
34writing poems, or hating what I write.
