- Free Verse: Free Verse is poetry that does not rythme or have a regular meter.
- Song Lyrics : Lyrics are words that make up a song usually consisting of verses and choruses.
- Prose Poetry: Prose poetry is written like prose, in paragraphs rather than verse, but contains the characteristics of poetry, such as poetic meter, language play, and a focus on images rather than narrative, plot, and character. Meter is the rhythm of a poem, including syllables per line and which syllables are emphasized.
