Instead of asking only, “What am I trying to say?” the poet also asks:
- Where should the reader pause?
- Where should the thought continue?
- Which words should receive emphasis?
- What patterns am I creating?
- When should I disrupt those patterns?
- How does the sound of the language change when I arrange it differently?
