It's a dictionary of poetic terms. Perhaps you'll find it there.
It says that REPETITION is a basic artistic device, fundamental to any conception of poetry. It is a highly effective unifying force; the repetition of sound, syllables, words, syntactic elements, lines, stanzaic forms, and metrical patterns establishes cycles of expectation which are reinforced with each successive fulfillment.

Pantoum? (The second and fourth lines of each stanza become the first and second of the next stanza).
I can't find anything else like that...
