Quick Definition

Detailed Definition
Term, 5-6° bounds, dignity layers. Poets term in limited scopes like Herbert's. Literary segments symbolize phase. The term's bounded span poeticizes specificity, where terms portion signs, allowing explorations of strength, limit, and the partitioned poetry of zodiacal rules.
Example
Example in poetry:
In Ptolemaic terms by Firmicus, term degrees assign planetary domains; Modern poet Ben Lerner in "The Lights" terms urban skies; William Blake's "The Tyger" terms fearful symmetry; In essential dignity verse, terms bound zodiac's segments, teaching bounded strengths.|John Milton's "On Time" terms eternity's gate; T.S. Eliot's "East Coker" terms earth's return.|In Rainer Maria Rilke's "The Term," it frames the endless; Sylvia Plath's "Edge" terms perfected poses.|In Emily Dickinson's "Success," terms counted sweetest.
