Just out of curiosity: which is your favourite genre of literature? Poetry includes both epic and lyric; prose includes both novels and short stories.

It’s a tough call, but I generally make these comparisons based on the genres’ best representatives; it seems unfair to hold, say, Maya Angelou against Robert Frost, which is essentially what happens when you average them out.

Also, though I do think the worst poetry is more unbearable than the worst prose, I’d rather read second-tier poets than second-tier novelists. I’m not sure at what level the two cross, though.

Yeah that's where we differ.
