| Publisher Description: Often poets feel stifled by the structure of formal poetry, but John Brantingham's instructions discuss how the tools of the form can help writers to create work they never would have expected when they approach formal poetry from a completely new direction. These forms can give us ideas that we never knew we could have. They allow for new insights not possible with free verse alone. These ideas and insights are the gift that form gives us. |
