Meta Post- Organic Form

           In this week's launch post, the writer decided to focus on the differences between organic poetry and free verse. They mention that organic poetry all stems from apperception, and is more focused on the rhythm of a poem, whereas free verse doesn't pay attention to the relationship between the lines. The writer poses the question of whether the class prefers organic poetry or free verse, and if we have experience in writing either.
           The first response to the launch post talks about how they have experience in writing both organic poetry and free verse, and how the difference between them does in fact reside in their structure. The writer felt that the crucial difference between the two forms of poetry is that organic poetry is "a comprehensive exploration into the more nuanced complexities of rhythms between lines" (organic poetry follows a natural order due to it's use of apperception; It's describing a chain of perceptions, or rather, how those perceptions come to fruition, so the structure itself is cohesive because it portrays one's natural train of thought) while free verse is a "comprehensive deconstruction of rhythm and rhyme within lines" (it's structure is no structure at all-- it's meant to break the rules).
             The second response talks about how the writer hasn't much experience in organic poetry, and how the majority of their poetry would probably be classified as free verse. They go on later to say that they aren't exactly clear on the distinction between free verse and organic poetry, and if they're as different as Levertov makes them out to be. The writer also reflects on their own usage of form and rhythm in poetry.
