- sorry, can you explain this? No part of "Other" represents the
"expunging of the well-constructed poem". To "change, ignore, or walk
round" an imagined standard is very different to expunging. Within "Other"
- for example - you might find some poets building upon traditions of one
kind or another, some subverting them for their own constructions, and
some avoiding such things altogether. I think each would be - in its own
terms - well-constructed.
