| User | sadtrapofgravit | | Topic | prose v. poetry...? | | Message | i’m really tired and i don’t feel like looking through the many posts...
being the deprived child i am, i have a crappy english teacher who doesn’t bother to tell us things such as what the fuck the difference is between an unstressed and a stressed syllable (such as in a shakespearean sonnet) before assigning us some stupid thing to write... so of course she doesn’t tell me what prose is.
i’ll love you forever if you make it nice and detailed (i’m <i>really</i> tired so an example would help me out, too).

Also, you could try looking up ’prose’ in the dictionary. mae |

| User | joeyalphabet | 2005-05-01 | | | Subject | untitled | | Message | It’s simple really. Prose is any sort of fiction or non-fiction writing. It should have a beginning, middle and end. It should be clear to the reader. That’s it. |
