more a matter of/a matter more of

[teleostomi]

(1) Poetry is more a matter of emotions than of thinking.
(2) Poetry is a matter more of emotions than of thinking.

Is either of these wrong or unnatural?

Sentence #1 is easier to say while sentence #2 is probably logically more correct. The diction in #1 is better. The language does not always follow logic.:)

Actually, I found (1) in a book, just as you recommended.
