Here's a post up on the 32 Poems blog about formal poetry I wrote quite a while ago, before I read Ravi Shankar's piece in The Writer's Chronicle which basically says the same thing but a lot more intelligently. Anyway, this is not to suggest the particular kind of poetry I espouse in my article is the ONLY kind of poetry I like, but I hope it instead suggests that a poem's music can derange the senses in really cool ways.
