Noah Goding and Doug DeAndrea

In poetry, an apostrophe is a figure of speech in which the poet addresses an absent person, an abstract idea, or a thing. Detaches himself from the reality and addresses an imaginary character in his speech. Example: “O cunning Love! With tears thou keep’st me blind, Lest eyes well-seeing thy foul faults should find.” -William Shakespeare

A poetic conceit is an often unconventional, logically complex, or surprising metaphor which is more intellectual than sensual. Example: “A Valediction: Forbidden Mourning”

An epic is a long narrative in verse form that retells the heroic journey of someone or a group of people. Example: Homer’s The Illiad and the Odyssey, and Vergil’s Aeneid

An epigram is a short and concise poem that is usually ironic or witty. Example: “Sir, I admit your general rule, That every poet is a fool, But you yourself may serve to show it, That every fool is not a poet.” – Sam Taylor Coleridge More modern: “Candy is dandy, but liquor is quicker.” –Ogden Nash

Directly from Latin Carpe Diem translates to “Pluck the day”, but commonly referred to as “Seize the day”. Living for today Example: “To the Virgins, to Make Much of Time”

Highly intellectualized poetry marked by bold and ingenious conceits, incongruous imagery, complexity and subtlety of thought, frequent use of paradox, and often by deliberate harshness or rigidity of expression. Example: “A Burnt Ship”

A statement or proposition that, despite sound (or apparently sound) reasoning from acceptable premises, leads to a conclusion that seems senseless, logically unacceptable, or self- contradictory. Example: "What a pity that youth must be wasted on the young.” – George Bernard Shaw

Written or spoken language in its ordinary form, without metrical structure. Example: “It was a bright cold day in April, and the clocks were striking thirteen.” George Orwell

A poem of fourteen lines using any of a number of formal rhyme schemes, in English typically having ten syllables per line. Example: “Sonnet I”

A thing that represents or stands for something else, especially a material object representing something abstract. Example: “My Heart Leads Up When I Behold”
