For this poem,
use one sentence to express a complex idea and move
across and down the page—
you might use the long dash for asides and tangents
the caesura to create movement drama
tension— building phrases
upon phrases,
layering the complexity
of your subject, rendering full
the emotional weight of experience—
however you go about it just make it one
sentence
more
or less
and
make it good.
