Bob's feedback:

"You've done a good job of describing the larger differences between poetry and prose, and the examples you give in the third paragraph do a good job of illustrating those differences. Since you are directly comparing and contrasting these styles, more examples (especially in the second paragraph) would help to illuminate your point. The discussion of Mina Loy's quote should take place in the intro paragraph since it is central to your overall argument and is reinforced in your conclusion. A discussion of the roles that the two styles play would also be helpful; i.e. what is prose good for and when is poetry more appropriate? Are they both meant to simply convey information, or do these styles each have a more specific purpose?"
