Free verse is not poetry because it generally lacks poetic elements. Metaphor and simile appear occasionally, but meter and rhyme don't. Therefore, it's not poetry... |

I write free verse quite often. I think it takes a real talent to pull it off well however. Tis no different than bad poetry or stories. It all depends on the particular taste of the reader. |
