POETRY AND PROSE TOPPLE
Poetry compresses, seduces, quickens matter into verse that may rhyme rhythmically or not.
Prose explains, enlarges, elongates matter into essays that are not necessarily either versified rhymes or rhythms.
At their best, they, poetry and prose, seamlessly transmute.
Poetry and prose as melded by masters of their moments are like males and females melded; like peanut butter and jelly; like the "Sermon on the Mount;" like the "Gettysburg Address; " like "The Atlanta Exposition Speech of 1895;" like the "I Have A Dream," of 1963; and like the Barack Obama Democratic Convention Speech of 2004.
Blended as one, poetry and prose topple time and space.
