The Mechanics of Poetry defines the basic concepts used in poetry in a logical sequence with clear, simple language. This essential and easy to understand little book is packed with information useful in any field of writing, from journalism to poetry to song lyrics. 72 pages, 5 1/2" x 8 1/2", soft cover.

"The Mechanics of Poetry is what any poetry educator needs as a class aid; all praises to you for doing the research to create such a relevant and useful artistic education tool."
