I began to write what I called 'rhythms' ie unrhymed pieces with no formal metrical scheme where the rhythm was created by a kind if inner chant.. Later I was told I was writing 'free verse' or Vers libre. Richard Aldington
There were certain impressions I wanted to fix. I read verse models but none seemed to suitably express that kind of impression.. until I came to read French vers libre which seemed to eactly fitr the case. T. E. Hulme
The poem, a harmonious flow of nuances, demands a musical rhythm, Vers libre. F. S. Flint
