<<Does anyone know how Shade would compare to Frost in
general terms?>>

Shade ranked himself behind Frost.  Probably VN would
too, probably so would the rest of us.

Pertinent to this issue of rhyme --

Frost wrote in often complex rhyme schemes because he
believed strongly in form, and because he liked the
challenge of writing within formal restraint.

I'm not sure that makes him anti-modern; on the basis
of the above he might have joined Oulipo.
