FINAL NOTE
Successively, one will find on these pages: a conversation (the absolute zero degree of verse?), tetrasyllabics, verse stanzas with 3, 2, and 5 words (a very free, graphic adaptation of the pantoum genre), "ordinary" free verse (or, coincident unity of meaning and line), "free" free verse (meaning and line need not coincide; enjambment flourishes), sonnets, "constrained" sonnets (by reducing the number of syllables per verse; that sonnets and free verse are doubly included is due, of course, to their dominant place in the contemporary poetic landscape), a poem in diminishing stanzas, a mélange of prose and poetry, poems with repeating verses, a specimen of readymade poetry, verse stanzas of increasing length (a non-syllabic variant of so-called rhopalic verse), heptasyllabics, decasyllabics, verse limited to ten and four syllables, and, finally, prose poetry.
