i have a hard time reading poetry, like it just won't go in. I was reading the prose edda the other day and whenever i got to one of the little poem bits I had to really engage the old nog-nog to process the informacion

Prose is supposed to capture the syntax of a normal conversation. Poetry is more like music since its like listening to a rhythm or beat.

I love poetry but I still get more of a kick from reading prose literature

Keep in mind - always use a lot of lube and start slowly. Not with Eliot and Marinetti, but with Poe and Dylan.

It's worse when one knows a girl who looks just like her (face and hair) and she tells you "let's just be friends" and then one goes along with it for a while, pretending to be interested in a friendship while secretly only being near her to appreciate her beauty and eventually cutting contact completely once he realizes it will never go anywhere and he's torturing himself.

I am a fucking retard.

Sparrows were feeding in a freezing drizzle
That while you watched turned to pieces of snow
Riding a gradient invisible
From silver aslant to random, white, and slow.

There came a moment that you couldn’t tell.
And then they clearly flew instead of fell.

The anon to whom (you) responded was merely being descriptive, senpai. There's a poetic element in ALL true literary writing; in fact, this is what distinguishes it from other types (not styles) of writing. The second part of his statement is more tendentious- he's basically telling [us] that he prefers narrative poetry (from Homer to Milton; Wordsworth's Prelude to Ammon's Garbage).
Though the distinction (you) drew is a real one in the sphere of prose proper, it doesn't at all apply to the distinction in question here. Not all poetic prose (literature) is a prose-poem.
