Answer 1

Answer:

The main difference between the different forms of literature is the purpose and the way words are arranged. ... In poetry we form words into lines and stanzas. Many of the rules of punctuation and grammar apply to poetry, but the poet can choose to change them as he or she wishes.

Answer 2

Poetry is an entirely unique form of literature, with its own set of rules, quirks, and forms.

• Poetry as a medium is ever-changing, unlike other forms of literary arts
• The concepts of rhyming schemes, the structure of the sentences, and the method in which each stanza is laid out are always in flux
• This has led to many different genres of poems; from haikus to sonnets, to ballads, and everything in between
• Poetry allows a writer to express themselves in a way that other forms of literature cannot
• Grammar rules are much more forgiving here, and the poet can make their work as structured or as avant-garde as they want
