I can't see how it makes any difference whatsoever whether this
incident actually happened to Stafford or not. And how would we know
anyway? When we speak of "poetry of personal [sc. authorial]
experience" are we not actually speaking of narrative poetry as such?
Of story? Which is certainly not restricted in usage to any fictional
mainstream.
