Form If you remove the form of the poem, you weaken the
poem.
In some (though not all) Concrete Poems, the formcontains so much significant meaning of the poemthat, if you remove the form of the poem, you destroythe poem.
The arrangement of letters and words creates an
image that offers the meaning visually. The white space of the page can be a significant part
of the poem.
The physical arrangement in a Concrete Poem can
provide a cohesion that the actual words lack. Thisallows a poem to ignore standard syntax, and logicalsequencing.
