Yes, but this thread was about someone who gave the impression that she
thought she was feeling her way into poetry, rather than someone who is very
experienced and wants to start experimenting.
My own feeling, and I may be wrong, is that it is better to find your feet
by writing poetry freely, rather than getting bogged down with this and that
form. I feel the concentration on the restriction on forms can stunt the
development of an author's natural voice. Exploration of forms can came
later.

Yes, friend, but for all kinds of reasons, different folks need to come at
it from different ways. We need to give them all a bit of space.
Thanks.
