I notice that the issue tends to come up when the grammar flows on without pause across lines. In this case, Carol raised the objection primarily with respect to the most thoroughly enjambed stanza in my poem.
I personally like the capitals, but I suppose the more verse impersonates prose, the more disruptive or self-conscious the caps look.
(BTW, thanks for calling it amusing, Clive.)
