"Prose, it might be speculated, is discourse;

Poetry ellipsis;

Prose is spoken aloud;

Poetry overheard;

The one is presumably articulate and social, a shared language, the voice of 'communication';

The other is private, allusive, teasing, sly...

a kind of witchcraft unfathomable to ordinary minds."

– Joyce Carol Oates

A/N:

Greetings! Here is the chapter I promised some time ago (sorry for the wait). What do you think about it? Do you agree? I totally do. Which one is more fun to write from your perspective, guys? If I were to answer I'd say prose, but that's only because I know more of how to write it than how to write poetry (which scares me a little). I'll leave you to enjoy your day/night, now!
