Poetry is FUN Poetic Forms

Concrete Poem This form of poetry has been around since the 1500s. It was originally called “Pattern Poetry” or “Shape Poetry.” The term “Concrete Poem” was coined in the 1950s. Present an idea graphically by using the letters and/or words to create a picture

Form If you remove the form of the poem, you weaken the poem. In some (though not all) Concrete Poems, the form contains so much significant meaning of the poem that, if you remove the form of the poem, you destroy the poem. The arrangement of letters and words creates an image that offers the meaning visually. The white space of the page can be a significant part of the poem. The physical arrangement in a Concrete Poem can provide a cohesion that the actual words lack. This allows a poem to ignore standard syntax, and logical sequencing.
