To summarise, basically, form is much broader, as a whole, eg. sonnet . Whereas structure is more 'micro', eg. rhyme scheme, something that you would have to delve into the poem in order to spot these. Hope this helps
i just want to say THANK YOU SO MUCH, this helps me understand so much!! i think personally this is one of the best poetry videos out there and thank you so much for helping me stay positive about the exams!
I'm not sure if you have done this before but could you explain how to structure your answer to a question asking to compare ways in which two poems present power and conflict. This is the one thing that worries me about exams, I have all the info I need by I don't know how to put it in my answer
So what about poems that haven't got a specific form as mentioned above? Could you state their form as being "free verse" and compare that as being the form of the poem to help ensure higher marks? You said the top band answers must include language, structure and form, so surely every poem must have a form?
Mr Bruff, should I talk about context in a separate paragraph or try to tie it in with my language/structure/form paragraphs when comparing the two poems?
I was previously marked down in a poetry comparison for having two different paragraphs on structure and form as they are apparently 'The same thing'. Would you say that this was justified?
hi mr bruff i am struggling a lot with english literature and memorising my poems could you give me some useful tips/ boosters that will help me achieve the grade i want
How do we avoid repeating ourselves over the single poem and then the comparison for form? I always thought metre was an aspect of form so i could easily avoid this - but surely with only the type of poem to analyse, we'd have to repeat our analysis for form for the shown poem across the single analysis and the comparison?
Can you please help with this assignment question. ‘Poetry is a genre with internal variations' Explore the validity of this assertion using three poems by different poets and from different literary traditions. I don't understand where it says 'internal variations' can someone please explain what are internal variations of a poem is. Thank you.
where would rhyme scheme come under? also when analysing form/structure how would we include references from the text. Additionally i always thought caesurae and enjambment were form not structure as thats what I'm taught in school.
mrbruff can you please do a video on what effect or what type of effect does the form,language or structure have in a poem pleassseeeeeeeee THANK YOU for the other and this video it really helped
Could you make a video on how to be really good at annotating for language and unseen poetry please...I think it I'll benefit a lot of people. Because sometimes when we look at a text we don't know what to say about it. And
Would you recommend just learning say six or seven poems really well ? Or do you think it's best to know all 15?! Also, many teachers are saying poems such as Tissue and the longer ones are much less likely to be printed, so therefore we wouldn't need to know about them/to write about them. Do you agree with this? Thanks so much! Your videos really help me.
Hi sir could you mark and give some feed back on this description please. The serene before the storm. A mist, with my silent foot steps towards her limbs, which were in such an awkward angels, and positions; that she couldn’t be sleeping. As fragile head twitched and forcefully turned the opposite way, with the guidance of gravity. Viscous, crimson liquid started pouring itself out of her forehead, down her innocent face, and trickled down her entire, body. That only meant one thing. Suicide. I stood there with astonishment of the tragedy, gazing, right at her. I was frozen in time, as if everything around me stood still. My eyes fell on her, my heart drenched by fear, which did not throb any longer. Everything faded into abyss. Numb. I could not feel anything around me. My eyes struggling to move, I was riveted at blood oozing out of every bloody, limb. Paralyzed in fear. I felt my breath being taken away. I collapsed on the ground “Louisa wake up, please, wake up” I howled. “I promise to be good, please Louisa wake up” as I caterwauled. I expeditiously caught hold of Louisa’s’ lifeless body and pulled her closer to me wrapping her arms around my, absorbing the little warmth left in her. I embraced her lifeless emotions, around her frail body. I had a slight hope that Louisa would grasp me and say everything will be alright. The fiery daemons, whose barbed tails coiled and snapped, their whips sharp, their horns like mighty rocks thrusting from their heads, wings reaching far and wide to swallow anyone that dare stand before them. “How could they do this!” My lungs screamed, however it didn’t satisfy my pain. The devastation is wired within me. It was well known from the monsters of history that people, in the 1917’s didn't react to death tolls, it had become a habit of theirs. If they were too high to comprehend. Wicked fun. Worked every time. The only antidote was to shine a light on one dead life at a time, just one. Tears made my eyes uncomfortably red, with tiny specs of scarlet blood giving me a drunk look. I desperately wanted, and needed the clock to turn back, only for a minute. Just a minute. I could have made it. I captured the weak face, once again and analyzed the difference, and studied the damage that that reflected my internal damage. She was wearing a navy blue dress that was, drenched in fresh rich blood, which was, bold against her light skin. Her skin resembled marble dusted with deep and dark specs of red. My heart deteriorated at each stage of exploration. As I pushed aside her obsidian hair to one side, to view het full lips, that would curl into a mischievous grin every time she did so, however this time, no sentiments where there. It was inevitable and certain that once I looked at her, I couldn't look away, from the destruction. She kept me still, in position. Louisa held my beating heart. I'm standing upright, proceeding the edge. Looking down at the bottom. I don’t mind the hurting. I'm getting foolish and senseless ideas in my head. I'm not even demanding them to stop. Simran Hans
Here’s the BBC website on this topic: www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/guides/zcrpycw/revision/4 It states under ‘form’: ‘Some poems adopt specific forms eg sonnets or narrative poems. Many don’t have an identifiable form.’ It states under ‘structure’: ‘The way the poet has organised the poem on the page eg number of stanzas, lines per stanza, breaks in between lines and stanzas.’
mrbruff I thought it was a dramatic monologue too as the writer adopts a persona. There also isn't direct address in porphyria's lover, but that's listed as dramatic monologue?
Mr Bruff I absolutely love you! What you do for us GCSE Students is amazing.This video really helped!
+Jacob Stephenson thanks!
How did you do?
To summarise, basically, form is much broader, as a whole, eg. sonnet . Whereas structure is more 'micro', eg. rhyme scheme, something that you would have to delve into the poem in order to spot these. Hope this helps
Please could you do some videos on approaching the unseen poetry part of the exam, and what you can easily spot

What's the best way to end our comparison answers?
I'm not sure if you have done this before but could you explain how to structure your answer to a question asking to compare ways in which two poems present power and conflict. This is the one thing that worries me about exams, I have all the info I need by I don't know how to put it in my answer
THANK YOUUUU!!!! This was SOO needed! ✨
so FORM is what type of poem it is
and STRUCTURE is how to poem is organised

Isn't London a ballad also?
Thank you so much sir !
no problem

I was previously marked down in a poetry comparison for having two different paragraphs on structure and form as they are apparently 'The same thing'. Would you say that this was justified?
Underdrill not at all. If you were able to link to the question then that would not be justified.
is enjambment and rhyme structure
of course i'd put my thumb up for this video! very useful, i guess i found one of my answers for my homework thanks to you! :)
hi mr bruff i am struggling a lot with english literature and memorising my poems could you give me some useful tips/ boosters that will help me achieve the grade i want
bossman if you can turn the poem into a song that way you can memorize the lyrics to the song you have made and in the exam recite it

What is the form of war photographer/ Bayonet charge?
Your mum
Is the narrative voice a feature of form or structure?
do tersets, qutrains, couplets etc count as structure or form?
they are structure. the form is something like the rhyme scheme
I know that this video was a while ago but if you could do a video on how to structure our answers for poetry that would be a great help.
When analysing language, do you need to quote exactly or can you just say what happens roughly?
Are there some poems without form then?
yes.
mrbruff so we have to make sure we pick a poem that has form or do you think the extract will be one with form?
can you do short stories from the telling tales anthology.
where would rhyme scheme come under? also when analysing form/structure how would we include references from the text. Additionally i always thought caesurae and enjambment were form not structure as thats what I'm taught in school.
structure for rhyme scheme.
Sir if you were to mention rhyme/rhythm as form would you lose marks ...and what If u can't pick out the form in a poem?
you wouldn't lose marks.
Sir is assonance a structure , form or language technique ?
its technique and I play clash royale too

do you think there's less chance of certain poems coming up?
Is a soliloquy form?

So if you need to analyze structure, language and form... what happens if the poem doesn't have a particular form?
You can't write about it

Please can you analyse the play DNA by Dennis Kelly
Is Neutral Tones a dramatic monologue?
+Oswin probably not, because it's not written in character
Mr Bruff is god
No!
I am just not convinced what he says about form is really true. It may be right for the specific poems he is mentioning.
Here’s the BBC website on this topic: www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/guides/zcrpycw/revision/4
It states under ‘form’: ‘Some poems adopt specific forms eg sonnets or narrative poems. Many don’t have an identifiable form.’
It states under ‘structure’: ‘The way the poet has organised the poem on the page eg number of stanzas, lines per stanza, breaks in between lines and stanzas.’
This would be much more effective as a blog post
