Poetic Syntax
Poetic Syntax is a specialized form of syntactic organization in verse that governs the arrangement of linguistic elements according to poetic principles rather than standard grammatical conventions, distinguishing it from ordinary or prose syntax by its deliberate manipulation of word order, ellipsis, inversion, and fragmentation to achieve aesthetic, rhythmic, or expressive effects.
