back from work for a few days I see these postings. virtue of verse

I say a  little bit of vice for a little bit of verses.

but as for conservative ? there are no conservatives in verse,
just differences of how they write.

Exploring that Battle of Ideas site, I found this essay by George Watson.
A somewhat conservative take on the state of the art, but a lot of good
things to say about the value of composition & revision. Also he ends
the piece with my all time favorite Rilke quote, so I give him credit for that.
