Etymology

Meanings

1. Resembling or characteristic of a stanza.
   • On the page, “Me” is irregular but—except for a prominent drawing of a two-toned hieroglyphic eye—not radically unusual: the lines are consistently left-justified; their length varies from one to a dozen syllables; they cluster in stanzalike units anywhere from one to six lines long that are separated by consistent spaces. 1997, Lynn Keller, chapter 6, in Forms of Expansion: Recent Long Poems by Women, University of Chicago Press, →ISBN, page 281:
