Here's why:
* Free verse is poetry that doesn't follow traditional rules of rhyme, meter, or stanza structure.
* Stanzas are groups of lines in a poem, often separated by a space.
So, a free verse poem can have:
* One long stanza
* Many short stanzas
* Stanzas of varying lengths
* No stanzas at all (the poem could be just one continuous line)
The poet decides how to structure the poem based on the content and the desired effect.
