Passage Summary: Some people think using traditional rhyme and rhythm in poems is a conservative thing to do, but the author disagrees because two specific poets use those styles while being very progressive.

Conclusion: The claim that writing rhymed and metered poetry is inherently a politically conservative act is incorrect.

Reasoning: There are specific examples of poets who use formal structures but hold progressive, non-conservative political views.

Analysis: The author is trying to disprove a general rule ('all formal poets are conservative') by providing counterexamples. For this to work perfectly, we need to ensure that being a 'progressive feminist' is actually incompatible with performing a 'politically conservative act.' The gap is between a person's personal political identity and the political nature of their specific artistic acts. Look for an answer that guarantees that if a poet is a progressive feminist, their act of writing formal poetry cannot be considered a conservative one.
