What distinguishes a prose poem from a verse poem? Is it length, rhythm, narrative, vocabulary, etc.?
I have no idea, Jack. I've had a few published, but I don't know what they are, or why. I've never worried about classifications though. I write without worrying about what someone else will call it.
Not much help, I know. The prose writer I admire, totally, is Thomas Pynchon. His prose is poetic - but he was/is a poet as well as a prose writer.
