I am loath to encroach on any of the DG threads but with reference to them, I'd like to offer up an essay at Horizon Review with also deals with "what poetry is". Or isn't.
It is, I think, superfluous to add that the present Horizon Review editor is Katy Evans-Bush and the former editor was Jane Holland. Both well-known to the faithful contributors and lurkers of Eratosphere.
