I don't think this is off topic, so I have a question for both of you. You both strive for form in your poems (as in your making those quatrains, which I do take as a compliment; haven't studied either of your sets of comments sufficiently to say more, but ....), and I come from an almost exclusively free verse universe (although my first love was Dylan Thomas, and he was no wimp when it came to form), and, well, why do you do it?
I hope this doesn't sound contemptuous or naieve.
