| | Poetry - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Poetry was employed as a means of recording oral history, storytelling (epic poetry), genealogy, and law. |  | | Samuel Taylor Coleridge defined poetry as "The best words in the best order." Carl Sandburg said that "poetry is the synthesis of hyacinths and biscuits.", while Robert Frost stated that "Poetry is the first thing lost in translation". |  | | Robinson Jeffers, Marianne Moore, and William Carlos Williams were three notable poets who rejected the idea that meter was a critical element of poetry, claiming it was an unnatural imposition into poetry. |

| | The Atlantic Online Fiction & Poetry |
 | | In 1891, shortly after the posthumous publication of Emily Dickinson's poetry, Thomas Wentworth Higginson recalled his correspondence with the reclusive poet and reproduced many of her letters and early poems. |  | | One of the biggest changes in modern poetry is its escape from the page to the performance. |  | | "Is it only coincidence that poetry in the last two decades has come into the full uses of madness as of an instrument?" By Peter Davison. |

| | Poetry |
 | | Among the poets published in the early issues of Poetry were Carl Sandburg, Vachel Lindsay, Edna St. Vincent Millay, Edgar Lee Masters, Sara Teasdale, and Elinor Wylie--all minor figures, to be sure, but notable for their contributions, either in theme or technique, to the flowering of modernism. |  | | American poetry, the history of which spans more than 350 years, is notable for its variety, energy, contrarian tendencies, and feistiness. |  | | Of the various movements that were influential in the 1980s and 1990s, the three most prominent were women's poetry, Language poetry, and neoformalism. |

 | | Sometimes loosely used to include any poetry propagated over the Internet, it originally designated poems that explored the compositional, distributional, formal, or aesthetic properties of the Internet, as distinct from oral or print culture. |  | | E-poetry (at least its major part) has roots in visual/concrete poetry, mail art, kinetic poetry, sound poetry, combinatory poetry/literature and similar approaches that were (and partly still are) explored in non-electronic (computer) media. |  | | E-poetry, short for electronic poetry, is poetry generated electronically, including hypertext poetry, interactive poetry written in various computer languages such as BASIC and internet related languages/scripts (javascript, java, perl, php), and poetry that is partially or completely randomly generated by electronic (usually computer) means. |

 | | One must make a distinction however: when dragged into prominence by half poets, the result is not poetry, nor till the poets among us can be 'literalists of the imagination'--above insolence and triviality and can present for inspection, 'imaginary gardens with real toads in them', shall we have it. |  | | In the meantime, if you demand on the one hand, the raw material of poetry in all its rawness and that which is on the other hand genuine, you are interested in poetry. |  | | Poetry I, too, dislike it: there are things that are important beyond all this fiddle. |

 | | THE METRES normally used in Arabic poetry were first codified in the 8th century by al-Khalil bin Ahmad and have changed little since. |  | | In older poetry - especially the ode (qasidah) - a single rhyme was used, often continuing for 100 lines or more. |  | | Because short vowels are generally considered long when they occur at the end of a line, the vowels which appear short in their written form also rhyme with their corresponding long vowels - it's the pronunciation, not the writing, that counts. |
