I have several posts on how I dislike strict adherence to rules in poetry, heh.
I actually don't think these are rules and regulations at all. This is why I called it "A Simple Structure," it's one of a set of possible ways to go about things. It's guidelines, it's a recommendation. It's a way to get you started.
May we all receive many more thoughtful critique comments. Steemit could use it.
Thank you for the warm words and continued support, Tom! :)
And well, everything we do is character-building, or born out of the character we've already built :D
