As a hybrid genre, the prose poem is often a subject of controversy among critics; while some assume it as a specific model, historically consolidated throughout the 20th century, others refute this identity. This article aims to contribute to the debate by raising Henri Meschonnic's ideas on the subject, related to his understanding of the notion of rhythm. The French author suggests in his writings that the new genre implies “another liturgy”, in comparison with poetry and prose. And it points out some ways to understand this heterogeneous expression.
