Bissett, Bill 1939–

A Canadian, Bissett is known as the lower case poet, never capitalizing any words and spelling them exactly as they sound. Bissett aims to involve all the senses in his poems and he writes mainly about a search for harmony. Although many critics find his verse both interesting and technically proficient, others argue that his use of language is too radical to be artistic. (See also Contemporary Authors, Vols. 69-72.)
