[Bill Dyes]

"Why would you submit any of your poems to a syllable count when a syllabic pattern without an accentual one doesn't render compelling results in English?"

That feels totally uncompelling to me. A poem in English comes as an experience comes: patterned or unpatterned. I rejected all attempts to turn me into "a little Englishman" a long time ago.

I listen to you and Nemo and many others and then start to revise.

Thanks Alexandra, I hope to talk again.
