The Forms of Poetry 
Hello Everyone, I’ll be focusing this week’s blog post on five poetry terms found in Babette Deutsch’s Poetry Handbook: A Dictionary of Terms and exemplify them to some famous poetry. Here we go!
Epic: an epic is a long, usually book-length, narrative work of poetry that is typically about the heroic deeds of an extraordinary hero during their mighty adventures.
    Example: Beowulf - Anonymous
        “Your fame is renowned wherever men journey, my dear friend Beowulf, among all the peoples. You hold power with balance, with wisdom of mind. Now I shall fulfill our friendship as we earlier agreed. And you shall bring peace to your people for a long time to come, a source of strength to the heroes.”
    Explanation: This excerpt is taken from the epic poem Beowulf, it’s the speech made by the Danish King, Hrothgar, delivered to the mighty and heroic Geat, Beowulf, who had just defeated the second monster that inflicted death and desolation to the Danish people. Beowulf, along with his Thanes, journey across the sea to aid the Danish King from the evil cursing his people, his long adventures throughout the poem are noble and epic that follow this heroic code that eventually gains him power, fame and wealth.
Ballad: a ballad is an anonymous short narrative poem that was traditionally composed to be a song. They are story tales that are sung from generation to generation before being recorded in writing.
    Example: “Lord Randal” - Anonymous
        “‘O I fear ye are poison’d, Lord Randal, my son!
        I fear ye are poison’d, my handsome young man!’
        “O yes! I am poison’d; mother, make my bed soon,
        For I’m sick at the heart, and I fain wald lie down.’”
    Explanation:This particular poem is a short conversation between a mother and her son who went hunting with his “bloodhounds” and had an unexpected dinner with a special lady who had fed him eels in broth that poisoned his dogs and himself. It’s a Scottish folk ballad, if you aren’t aware of the deep Scottish accent, that wasn’t meant for being written but serves as a moral lesson of true-love and betrayal. 
Sonnet: a poetic form of fourteen lines written in iambic pentameter that employs several rhyming patterns that deals in a single thought or feeling. The sonnet had originally derived from Italy and spread beyond Europe during the Renaissance.
    Example: “Sonnet LXXIII” - William Shakespeare
        “In me thou see’st the twilight of such day
        As after sunset fadeth in the west; 
        Which by and by black night doth take away,
        Death’s second self, that seals up all in rest.”
    Explanation: Shakespeare’s poem consists of fourteen lines with a particular rhyming pattern essentially about characterizing the nature of old age. Furthermore, sonnet seventy-three is one giant metaphor that compares nature to growing old. In the quatrain gladly given, Shakespeare says that his age is like the late twilight where the sun slowly fades in the west and darkness begins to grow around, almost like sleeping but in this case, dying. 
Free Verse: is a form of poetry that does not abide by the rules of metrical verse. In other words, there’s no rhythmic structure or rhyming patterns involved but rather tends to follow the natural rhythm of speech.
    Example: “A Noiseless Patient Spider” - Walt Whitman
        “A noiseless patient spider, 
        I mark’d where on a little promontory it stood isolated, [...]
        And you O my soul where you stand,
        Surrounded, detached, in measureless oceans of space,”
    Explanation: Walt Whitman’s “A Noiseless Patient Spider” is a free verse poem that has no rhythmic structure but feels like a running train of thought without the rails. The poem is metaphorical because it compares the spider to a soul learning the ways of the world.
Blank Verse: is a literary term that refers to poetry written in unrhymed metered lines.
    Example: “The Second Coming” - William Butler Yeats
        “Surely some revelation is at hand;
        Surely the Second Coming is at hand.
        The Second Coming! Hardly are those words out
        When a vast image out of Spiritus Mundi”
   Explanation: Yeats’ poem demonstrates blank verses that contain no rhythmic patterns and ultimately describe this apocalyptic nightmare he’s attempting to warn the reader about.

Sonnet LXXIII
by William Shakespeare
That time of year thou mayst in me behold
When yellow leaves, or none, or few, do hang
Upon those boughs which shake against the cold,
Bare ruin'd choirs, where late the sweet birds sang.
In me thou seest the twilight of such day
As after sunset fadeth in the west,
Which by and by black night doth take away,
Death's second self, that seals up all in rest.
In me thou see'st the glowing of such fire
That on the ashes of his youth doth lie,
As the death-bed whereon it must expire
Consumed with that which it was nourish'd by.
This thou perceivest, which makes thy love more strong,
To love that well which thou must leave ere long.

Sonnet LXXIII
Maybe you’ll remember that sharp man who came out of the darkness like a knife and before we knew, he knew: he saw smoke and decided it came from fire.
The pale woman with black hair arose like a fish from the abyss and they built between them, in opposition to love, a machine armed with countless teeth.
Man and woman felled mountains and gardens, came down to the rivers, climbed the walls, carried through the mountains their atrocious artillery.
Love knew then that it was called love. And when I raised my eyes to your name your heart suddenly marked out my path.
-Pablo Neruda-
