Hmmm. I have to admit that I haven't consciously come across the idea of poem as microcosm, partly because of spending most of my time playing in prose, partly because - well, that would have involved someone pointing out new criticism to me at some point before I started playing in prose. Can you just elaborate a wee bit for me? (Yes, I know I am assisting you in the hobby horse. Believe me, I wouldn't be if I wasn't finding it interesting.)
