is the size the same for the poetry...because in one of my poems for example ive done falling

for example, and it really brings out the effect of that poem - ad i mean its not that long - but everything else in my work is normal as in size and font.

The expected presentation is as above, however I believe that the markers do not mark down so long as the intended font style adds to the effect of the work. I would make any other text the same as the course requirements.

oooooh i like the way u did that... yeh i can imagine how that would further enhance the meaning of a poem...

personally i don't see any harm with maybe 2 or 3 instances were u may choose to do something like that... as long as it adds to meaning and is only done for less that 0.01% of ur major work... but yeh generally jusy try to stick to normal font... (i..e syllabus requiremtns).. as jhakka and cherryblossom stated
