This is nothing but a dictionary entry. RichardOSmith (talk) 20:45, 27 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep This is a literary form used by major authors such as Swift and Franklin. The musical equivalent has an article, explaining the form – Bagatelle (music) – and so there's some scope to expand this page too. The worst case is that we would merge into another page such as light verse. Andrew D. (talk) 21:05, 27 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep only if it can be improved and although my first search at Books found nothing, if it is widely used and common it can be accepted. SwisterTwister talk 06:48, 2 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
