Billy Collins Says eReaders Screw Up Poetry

"'I found that even in a very small font that if the original line is beyond a certain length, they will take the extra word and have it flush left on the screen, so that instead of a three-line stanza you actually have a four-line stanza. And that screws everything up.'"
Another reason, if I needed one, not to bother with ebooks.
