A beast is pushing

to freedom, under my skin -

and it makes me dance.

COMMENTS OF THE POEM

Susan Williams 12 September 2020

" Syllabic verse- - -Poetry whose meter is determined by the total number of syllables per line, rather than the number of stresses. Marianne Moore’s poetry is mostly syllabic. Other examples include Thomas Nashe’s “Adieu, farewell earth’s bliss” and Dylan Thomas’s “Poem in October.” - - - > Aha- -your poem is a haiku, a form of syllabic verse==thank you for poetry lesson! ! ! !
