Form: Other (Pregunta)

The Pregunta is a Spanish poetic form that proposes a question and offers a response.

Basic guidelines:

Usually a collaborative poem
First stanza presents a question (or series of questions)
Second stanza presents an answer while copying the form and structure of the first stanza
Quick note: The first stanza sets the structure for the second half of the poem. Not only does it decide the subject through the question (or questions) it asks, but it also decides the structure and form for the poem.

Collaboration with David Crandall.
