Question

what is the difference between SEQUENTIAL POEMS and NARRATIVE POEMS ..please could you give explanation and not a website link thanks :)

Answer 1

You need to read the explanations for yourself. They're not difficult to understand.

Narrative: http://cla.calpoly.edu/~kclark/recinpoetry.html#NARRATIVE

Sequential: http://cla.calpoly.edu/~kclark/recinpoetry.html#SEQUENTIAL

(from: http://cla.calpoly.edu/~kclark/recinpoetry.html )

There are several other good websites that explain these terms, but this one has the clearest explanations.

Answer 2

Answer 5

Yes, that's right.

And ... sequential will be noticeably longer and will be broken up into units, probably numbered.

Here is on example. Other examples are listed on each of the webpages above.
