Difference between poetry and prose?

.I agree with Billy...I don't care what the rules say...for me a poem has to use more than one poetic devise to be considered poetry.

i'd go one step further and say enjambment while a poetic device, is also a bit of a cheat, that said, it can make or break a poem.
