Comment: Meter for dummies?
| << Previous | Next >> |
The way you read your poetry is up to you... but... meter is a sonic tool, designed to improve the way a poem sounds, so it would be sort of a shame to try and ignore it. You don't have to put exactly the same emphasis on each of the accented syllables -- some words are more important than others, after all -- but meter's ONLY purpose is to be heard.
