On this, as on much else, [Glyn] Maxwell is brisk and forthright: if you're going to write poetry, "line-break is all you've got, and if you don't master line-break--the border between poetry and prose--then you don't know there is a border. And there is a border. (A prose poem is prose done by a poet.)"
