@kevj.poetry: Literary Devices I Didn’t Know Existed pt13: Diacope As a former teacher who used to teach the speech to seventh graders, you’ll find so many literary devices that King had under complete and utter control during this speech. Remember, if you go to use this in your poetry that this isn’t a regular device like metaphor or simile. It’s technically more of a rhetorical device in this context, but still. But y’all heard the video get to the comments and go crazy on that challenge! #literary #writingtips #writingadvice #poetsandwriters #creativewriting

This goodbye is here to stay
This goodbye is here to stay
I'll cry myself a river over you because forever seems too far away,
I'll keep the door to my soul ajar for you
I'll paint the memory of this home in every place I roam,
But this is goodbye is here to stay

Public Opinion :
I've never studied poetry except in certain literature classes in HS/college classes. Naturally, I will forever know where to find iambic pentameter in use, and I can always spit out Haiku in a pinch, but can someone recommend some NF books that cover more of what published "poetry" encompasses?
I often read the New Yorker and similar periodicals and enjoy the poetry selections there, but what makes them poetry? What influences the positions of words or appearance of a
stanza
on the page?
