Commentary Index

A growing collection of reflections on poetry, craft, and the meaning behind the line.

🔗 Modernism and the Loss of Form — How modernism’s rupture gave us cleverness without clarity—and why the line still matters.

🔗 When Metaphor Isn’t the Point — On clarity, structure, and why some poems don’t need to glitter to speak.

🔗 Against the Metaphor (Part II) — A brief return to the line, and what it once held—without glitter.

This index will grow as reflections deepen.
