For your POL annotations:

There are two main forms of poetry: open and closed.

Closed form poetry, also known as fixed form, consists of poems that follow patterns of lines, meter, rhymes, and stanzas, whereas open form poetry does not. 

When writing a closed form poem, the poet follows specific rules to fit a model, such as a haiku, sonnet or villanelle ("Do Not Go Gentle into That Good Night").
