[Perry Miller]

Thank you, Roger and Susan. Before I read your comments, I concluded I should just post on the Free Verse forum, but now I've decided to make that decision for each poem individually. Your comments have been helpful.

Let me just add that in my early writing, there were more metrical anomalies than there are today. Over time I discovered that if I was more careful with the meter, my poems generally sounded better. The human ear likes regularity.
