Hey /lit/, what are some good books to help me learn more about prosody/scansion/forms? I have a decent background, having read The Ode Less Travelled, memorized the forms in it, and also having read Poetic Designs by Stephen Adams. Are there any more advanced books? I want to try to teach myself to have a very advanced understanding of poetry. Is Fussell's Poetic Verse and Poetic Form good? I heard that it is more advanced than the other books, but I wanted to hear what you guys thought of it. And by the way, I already read a lot of poetry on the side, so there's no need to tell me to "just read poetry." Thanks

Book of Forms
Poets Guide to Poetry

*go to your library and enter prosody in the subject search then check out those books*
