and before consulting the webster's what did you think?
what i see is someone who had to check up what it actually was, (not having a go at you over it, i did/do the same) just pointing out that if we have to google or check it out then we're sort of out there in limbo over it. and have been. my idea here is to kick the crap out of enjambment to see what actually flies.
it says a lot but doesn't really help. where do we cut the line if we have more than two closely related words? and does it only count if we're going from one verse/stanza/couplet etc, to another? can't we use enjambment mid stanza?
so hands up if you haven't a clue. only thinking we know something isn't enough, or is it? personally knowing and thinking i know are two completely states of being
i'm still unsure about the mechanics of enjambement
