Whether in a formal poem or an informal one, everything depended, and still depends, on the quality of the moment. Formality and informality are just two different ways of joining the moments up. The question will always be about which is superior, and the 'always' strongly suggests that neither of them is. Whatever kind of poem it is, it's the moment that gets you in.
