- bordercases 9y agoIt's acting as a universal delimiter, like commas. Even though it would be technically correct to put commas everywhere for creating emphasis, it would be ugly, and wouldn't cover all the cases for emphasis that Fuller is trying to create. My guess is that he's trying to communicate how he would pace the poem in his own speech.
