Description: According to the author, Persian poetry does not aim to be spontaneous in spirit or highly personal in form. Instead it is rooted in conventions and rules of prosody, rhymes, and verbal instrumentation. Ideally, every verse should be like a precious stone–perfectly formed and multifaceted–and convey the dynamic relationship between everyday reality and the transcendental.
