"Thanks, Erthona. Upon repeated readings, I think I am beginning to agree with the amount of line truncation as excessive. I would say that I do like the verbal-mental tension and imagery associated with the visual form of lines 17-19. What do you think about keeping these in the original form?"
Sorry, but I can't see that it does anything for the poem and for me it is a distraction. These sorts of tricks are what I would expect to find in old ladies coffee table books.
