Story behind the song
I was listening to a debate over whether so called "free verse" (which is a new name for prose) should be considered poetry, since it paints the same kind of emotional word pictures as poetry. I'm not slamming prose, but it's not poetry. Just as Football and Basketball are both sports, both played by two teams with a ball, and yet are very different. I hope y'all get a chuckle out of this.
