Andrea McKenzie Raine : part two

How do you know when a poem is finished?

I believe knowing when a poem is finished is instinctual. The moment, the word that closes a poem, is similar to the ending phrase or note in a piece of music. The closing of a poem should feel resolved, but also remain as an opening or invitation to move back into the poem. A poem should be complete, but fluid too.
