Don't worry, I like to break the rules. My definition of prose is as follows:

Complete thoughts in each line, both rhyming and not rhyming (line breaks be damned, lol).

As for poetry:

Poetry is the ability to capture thoughts, images, and emotions on a page. Rhyming or not, it is how well the "poem" depicts how the poet is feeling and can inspire others to give more in depth thought to just words on a page. I've always believed that the best poems are written from the heart.
