Darren C. Demaree : part four

How important is music to your poetry?

The music and energy of the poem can be a driving force of the work.  The presence or absence of the music in each poem is one of the first feelings the reader picks up on.  It can be a tricky proposition depending on the tone of the piece, but if you can nail the music of it the poem might transcend the narrative, the landscape, the abstraction, etc.
