Show or tell: what is it when it's at home?
#1
I would like to know people's thoughts on this frequently brought up angle in many critiques.

I am frankly often confused by the difference.  That is, I have hard time sometimes seeing the dividing line.  It seems like every poem is a telling.  I do understand the importance of showing, since images are sort of the blood of poetry.  

Maybe I'm the only person who doesn't quite get it.  Analysis is not one of my strong points.

Anyway, enlighten me!
