    A hexameter is a line of poetry built with six main beats (six “feet”). The famous kind is hexameter, the long marching line of old Greek and Latin epic — Homer and wrote that way — where the ear waits for six pulses, not six rhymes and not six sides. English poets have borrowed it, but it is harder to hear in English than in Greek or Latin, so you mostly meet the word in literature class. Though actually, meter here means a measured unit of rhythm, not a metre-stick and not how long the line looks on the page. If you clap six stresses, you are close to the idea.
