" EDITOR’S NOTES Poetry Diary of Tolstoy; Dutton, p. 84: “Where the boundary between prose and poetry lies, I shall never be able to understand. The question is raised in manuals of style, yet the answer to it lies beyond me. Poetry is verse: prose is not verse. Or else poetry is everything with the exception of business documents and school books. "
