RE:I agree with you Cousin about the punctuation a lot of people in American literature use punctuation I tend to be lazy with my punctuation I never put periods I just move on to the next line I am getting better at putting commas in when required though because like you said it is about the rhythm. |
Poetry is finer and more philosophical than history; for poetry expresses the universal, and history only the particular.
