Found a new form recently, a Prose Poem. It's like a concise essay. My Potrero essay is almost a prose poem. With a little more editing, it could be. It's a one-thought mini-essay with extreme word pictures, a totally enjambed poem with no line breaks. Instead it calls on alliteration, assonance, feminine rhyme, metaphor, etc.
Lately I've been reading - and writing - poetry with enjambment in mind.
Star*Line is calling for prose poems for an up-coming issue. I want to try my hand at a speculative-themed one.
