There is a difference

between a stanza and a strophe (I think I read this recently), but I'm with you--"strophe" sounds too pc to me. I think I'll stop using it. :)

screw you, river boy

I just strophed myself good. I strophed my way through several comments before I got to your anti-strophing blasphemy.

STROPHE and PEACE,

WE

~~

Did a little checking and they're not wholly interchangeable. In fact the simplest word normally used has been stanza; but it usually seems to be associated with rhythmic and rhyming poems. Perhaps it's with the prose and free verse that strophe came into its own.

stanza

While strophe has a more intellectal sound to me ~ I much prefer stanza. Just a personal preference.
