Quoting lines of poetry

Hey there kiddos –

Here are some protocols to follow when quoting lines of poetry from Skrzynecki’s poems:

 

When quoting lines of poetry you need to include the line breaks.

EG:

In ‘Postcard’ Skrzynecki explores the dilemma he faces in balancing his past with his present/future exemplified in “I never knew you/let me be”.

OR

When Skrzynecki writes in ‘Postcard’:

“…I never knew you.

let me be”

he is exploring the dilemma he faces in balancing his past with his present/future.

Enjoy,
