RHYTHM Rhythm is the beat and the pace of words in a piece of writing.

The ordinary form of written language. (Poetry, drama and songs are not considered forms of prose.) Unlikely to have a regular pattern, but sometimes it contains a recognizable tempo. PROSE

RHYTHM  Poetry has rhythm called the metric pattern.  The metric pattern is similar to the beat of music in that it uses the syllables in the words falling at regular intervals.  Rhythm is established in a few different ways by using tools.

FOOT  There are different types of feet within poetry.  Each foot contains a set number of stressed and unstressed syllables.  Feet combine together to create a line of poetry.

FEET  The different feet create different paces because unaccented syllables do not take as long to say as accented syllables.  A line of poetry containing mostly unaccented syllables would have a faster pace.  A line of poetry containing mostly accented syllables would have a slower pace.

DETERMINING METER  Once you have determined what type of foot is being used, you will then be able to determine the meter of the poem.  After every foot, place a vertical line and then count the number of feet listed within the line.  The number of feet within each line will determine the meter of the poem

HOW TO REMEMBER THE METER  Mono- means one. For example a monologue has only one speaker  Di- means two. Remember when you cut something in two you are dissecting.  Tri- means three. A tricycle has three wheels and a triangle has three sides.  Penta- means five. The Pentagon in Washington has five sides.  Oct- means eight. An octopus has eight legs.

 Inversion occurs when the beat within a line may change or vary.  Inversion occurs for 2 reasons: 1. The poet was unable to find a word that fit with the meter and foot 2. They changed the meter and foot for emphasized effect  If inversion is used to often, it loses all effect. INVERSION

CAESURA  A short pause which can take the place of an unaccented syllable.  It CANNOT be used in the place of an accented syllable because the pause would be too long.  Pausing at a comma or end of the sentence is normal, and when it occurs within a line, it is called a Caesura.  Ex: Oh CAN’T you STAY ? STAY and PLAY. U / U / U / U /
