Hello Ethan,
The example you submitted requires corrections in capitalization, sentence structure and word usage. But the punctuation is correct. I can provide you details if you are interested. Please let me know. Thanks

Hi Ethan, You answered my question. It read like a poem, so thank you for clarifying that. Within the messaging app, I do not believe the lines kept their structure within the stanza. This made it seem as if the capital T in "the" and the O in "of" were mistakenly capitalized within the line. Question: did you mean to say rear as opposed to rearing? Because while rearing is more grammatically correct, anything goes with poetry (i.e. traditional rules can go out the window), as long as what you are doing is intentional and for effect. -Rasul

One more question: is this stanza correct? (slashes separate lines) Each artifact/ In his quest he finds/ Puts under the/ Scope and then knows why.

…/ Puts under the scope / and then knows why. (IMO, because poetry is very subjective, as I mentioned previously) Hope this helps Rasul

Thanks for your response. This is part of a peom so the word choice and sentence structure is very deliberate. What is wrong with the capitalization?08/10/22
