RE: 1:4 (Poem/Prose)
I sometimes wonder if prose is a form of poetry per se or not. But, if you work on free verse, aren't you also working on prose, so to speak?

Maybe so. I don't understand enough about it to know.
One of my favourite creations is a ballad I did for junior high school. There's certainly value for following a certain form factor, but these days, each piece takes the form it feels it should to me. Which is why I end up with a piece such as this one, that wouldn't have come to be if I were to follow a precedent.
Good luck in your future writings, let the writing guide you :)
