"KaleKaleKale, glorious kale!!" goes forth the cry!
"People without hope not only don't write novels, but what is more to the point, they don't read them.
They don't take long looks at anything, because they lack the courage.
The way to despair is to refuse to have any kind of experience, and the novel, of course, is a way to have experience."
-Flannery O'Connor
"In spite of much that militates against quietness there are people who still read books. They are the people who keep me going."
-Elisabeth Elliot, Preface, "A Chance to Die: The Life and Legacy of Amy Carmichael"

Talk about ...Unrhymed cadence
 in vers libre is built upon "organic
rhythm" or the rhythm of the speaking
voice with its necessity for breathing,
rather than upon a strict metrical system.
[26]Â For vers libre addresses the ear, not
the eye.[27]Â Vers libre is liberated from
traditional rules concerning meter, caesura,
and line end stopping.[28]Â Every syllable
pronounced is of nearly equal value but
is less strongly accented than in English;
being less intense requires less discipline
to mold the accents into the poem's rhythm.
[20]Â This new technique, as defined by Kahn,
consists of the denial of a regular number of
syllables as the basis for verification; the length
of the line is long and short, oscillating with
images used by the poet following the contours
of his or her thoughts and is free rather than regular.[29]
