INTRODUCTION
Craft elements refer to the building blocks of fiction/poetry. They include things like plot, character, point of view, imagery, rhyme, rhythm, meter, etc. Craft elements are the tools that writers use to build works of fiction/poetry, just as other types of artists use paint, clay, wood, metal, concrete, and even digital media to build creations for the sake of art, communication, or business. Creators use the tools of their craft to guide their audiences to focus on what's most important in their creations. So, as readers of fiction/poetry, it's worthwhile to ask how authors construct their creative work, and why they make their craft-related choices. And as creators ourselves, it's crucial to consider how we can/should use the craft tools we have to construct our fiction/poetry.
In this activity, we'll look at how poets use form.
WHAT TO DO
FIRST, read the both e.e. cummings and George Herbert's poems
and Form in Poetry handout, also linked at the bottom of this page.SECOND, post a message to the Form in Poetry forum that addresses the following:
- Look at either of the two e.e. cummings' poems, and make as many observations as you can about possible connections between the poem's FORM and it's SUBJECT. Dig deep, and try to push beyond superficial observations that equate to "the poem looks like what it is," and try to connect the poem's use of line and space with its deeper, possibly thematic subject.
This is a tough challenge--that's why they're called "challenges." Don't be discouraged; just try, and don't give up too quickly. I'm not looking for right answers, I'm looking for your ability to think creatively, to be curious, and to keep trying.

When we hear about the term structuralism in poetry, one of the ideologies that are
conceptualized by our minds are the different styles and forms of writing certain literary pieces.
The structuralism approach can be conceptualized as a way of perceiving the globe in terms of
structures. However, the approach evolved as a result of challenging new criticism, rejection of
Sartre's existentialism, and the concept of radicalness in human independence (Shmoop 2017).
Besides, the ideology of structuralism simply implied that different thoughts were intended to be
put in the study of literature that in...
