16. Form Follows Function 2 - "Miniver Cheevy" by Edwin Arlington Robinson

In this episode, I'll be revisiting my grand idea that poetic form follows function. We'll be looking at Edwin Arlington Robinson's great loser, Miniver Cheevy, to address how he uses a system of sound in poetry called prosody to make his point. By the end of this episode, you should have a clearer idea of how I think the form of a poem out to match the content, even enhance it!

NOTE: This episode was recorded on different equipment than usual. Let me know if you love it or hate it.
