I can see how practises in poetry evolve out of shared projects, and acknowledging what’s shared and held in common might be helpful to a reader. And Tim, among others here, must be wearied by my periodically expressed opposition to these classifications. Perhaps I ought to preface these statements by personalising them and saying that I find the divisions mainly unhelpful, only I very much suspect that I’m not alone in that, and that a whole generation or two of younger poets will have discarded them. > Still I have to say, that like Robert, I find Tim’s last post describing a series of cross-over poetic manoeuvres clear and helpful. Sadly, I find myself stranded on the wrong side of this divide. > Jamie > >>
