I struggle with punctuation until I’ve read my poem out loud a few times. I often go back and change it after a while once I know the poem better. You detail very well here the how’s and why’s of punctuation in poetry.

Thank you! I love how changing punctuation can change the cadence and weight of the poem.

Lovely read! I personally like to use punctuation experimentally in poetry, yields a lot of fun!
